Important Update Regarding Domestic Violence Services in the Lincoln Trail Area Development District:

The ZeroV member program serving the Lincoln Trail Area Development District, SpringHaven, Inc., will be closing effective June 30, 2026, due to financial instability. ZeroV recognizes this is a difficult time for the organization, its clients, and the larger community, and is working to support SpringHaven as it winds down operations.

SpringHaven has served the Lincoln Trail Area Development District for 40 years. During that time, the organization has made a tremendous positive impact on the lives of thousands of survivors and their children. ZeroV is grateful to SpringHaven’s staff, volunteers, donors, and community partners for their four decades of dedication to supporting and empowering survivors of domestic violence. Countless adults and children have found safety, healing, and a new beginning because SpringHaven was there for them in their time of need. This is a legacy to be proud of.

During this transition, ZeroV is working alongside SpringHaven to ensure the continuity of services for current clients and minimize service disruptions in the Lincoln Trail area. Local communities can rest assured that survivors will continue to have access to essential domestic violence services through ZeroV member programs in neighboring area development districts, including the Barren River Area Safe Space in Bowling Green, The Center for Women and Families in Louisville, Bethany House in Somerset, and GreenHouse17 in Lexington. Lincoln Trail counties include Breckinridge, Grayson, Meade, Hardin, Larue, Nelson, Washington, and Marion.

In the long-term, ZeroV seeks to work with community partners in the Lincoln Trail area to determine the best path forward for domestic violence services in the region. Full details about the transitional service plan will be made available at ZeroV.org by July 1, 2026.

Our communities depend on federal grants to support survivors of domestic violence and sexual assault. In just one day, ZeroV’s domestic violence programs served 1,411 survivors with lifesaving domestic violence services they depend on to keep themselves and their children safe. Call or email your congressman and ask that they urge the DOJ and HHS to immediately publish NOFOs and expedite the release of congressionally appropriated funds. Survivors can’t wait.

Federal funding is critical to ensuring survivors of domestic violence and sexual assault can access lifesaving services and support. Funding delays have real and immediate consequences for survivors and the programs they depend on. Call or email your congressman and ask that they urge the DOJ and HHS to immediately publish NOFOs and expedite the release of congressionally appropriated funds. Survivors can’t wait.

This year’s Family Violence Prevention and Services Act ( ) funding should have begun on October 1, 2025. But the funding notices haven’t even been released yet – and it will take another 6-9 months to receive funding once they are. This means that ZeroV’s domestic violence shelters and programs will face months without core funding that helped them serve over 14,000 adults and children in fiscal year 2025 alone. Call or email your congressman and ask that they urge HHS to immediately publish NOFOs and expedite the release of congressionally appropriated funds. Survivors can’t wait.

Today, ZeroV joins domestic violence and sexual assault programs across the nation in support of urging Congress to release the critical funding that allows our programs to provide lifesaving domestic violence services that victims and survivors depend on. Join us for NNEDV’s National Days of Action to urge the release of these appropriated funds to fund lifesaving domestic violence services and prevent gaps and delays in service provision that risk survivor safety. Call or email your congressman and ask that they urge the DOJ to expedite the release of congressionally appropriated funds. Survivors can’t wait.
