HAVEN’s Kids Are Our Business Breakfast is a powerful morning of purpose, a gathering that shines a light on prevention, education, and the shared responsibility we all hold to build safer communities for our children and families.
This inspiring event brings together business leaders, educators, advocates, and community partners for a morning filled with connection, reflection, and hope. Guests will hear directly from HAVEN’s educators and community leaders about the impact of our prevention programs in local schools, and the tangible ways education can stop violence before it starts.
As sunlight fills the room, guests enjoy a hearty breakfast, moving stories of resilience, and an opportunity to invest in the next generation’s safety and well-being. Because when we come together to learn, to listen, and to lead with compassion, we’re not just changing lives, we’re shaping the future.
HAVEN’s work is only possible because of the generosity and partnership of people like you. We can’t do this without you, and it wouldn’t be the same without you there.
With 130 guests attending at our 2025 Kids Are Our Businessess Breakfast, we were able to share just how important our prevention education programming truly is. Our Education Team sees roughly 13,000 K-12 students each year, which only makes up half of the school-aged kids in our catchment area. With your continued support, we can expand our reach and make sure that all kids get the help and understanding they need.
As discussed in our program, only 1 in 10 children disclose their abuse, leaving the other 9 to suffer in silence. The sexual abuse of children in the United States amounts to a total lifetime economic burden estimated to be at least $9.3 billion each year. What are we doing to solve this? Our team teaches children personal body safety starting in Kindergarten with six simple rules:
1. My body belongs to me.
2. Touches in the private area are only to keep me clean and healthy.
3. Touches in the private area are never a secret.
4. If I’m hurt, confused, or scared, I can talk to a grown-up I trust.
5. It’s never too late to tell.
6. Keep on telling until you get the help you need.
These rules empower children to disclose their abuse when needed and to recognize abuse before it happens. We know that to truly combat this abuse, it begins with education, awareness, and a commitment to the work that we do, from children and adults alike.
