The Triple Bottom Line
Raising Money, Providing Individuals Support Services and Impacting the Socio-Economic Environment
Abstract
The advancing interest in social innovation has allowed for a clear definition of A Safe Haven Foundation’s (ASHF) trailblazing social business enterprise, and proof of concept in our existing business strategies. Our efforts bring in impressive public and private funds while providing holistic, wrap-around services within a comprehensive behavioral health continuum of care and aftercare model that transforms lives immediately, for the long-term, and for future generations. The rhetoric coined around social business enterprise is a recent development in the last decade; when ASHF began in 1994, there was no specific terminology around our type of work, in addition to the fact that stigmas around homelessness and poverty kept us fairly isolated from public discussions. The emerging words and concepts, and the public’s familiarity with the vocabulary today, serve as building blocks and have helped to increase our reputation as leaders in the world of social business enterprise in Chicagoland, and nationwide.
