From Personal Promise to a Proven Standard

Our foundation began with a crisis, and a calling. In 1996, after Jimmy Simpson suffered an anoxic brain injury, his wife Carol discovered a heartbreaking gap in lifelong care options. Determined to help others facing the same struggle, she founded The Jimmy Simpson Foundation in 1998. Today, we remain guided by our core values: Dignity, Respect, Community, Integrity, Collaboration, and Hope.

Our Values

Everyone has the right to a high quality of life, regardless of mental or physical capabilities.

Our Three Pillars

Comprehensive Care and Community

Specialized Residential Care When care is complex and time is critical, Safehaven is your trusted partner. We provide 24/7 expert, compassionate placement in a home-like environment for individuals with brain injuries and ventilator dependency. Because when someone lives here for years, care becomes home.

Building Impact A $20 million capital campaign to expand Safehaven’s capacity from 12 to 24 suites. This expansion will modernize our infrastructure, preserve our outcomes, and ensure that our promise of lifelong care becomes permanent for generations to come.

Support, Connection, Hope You are not alone. Carol’s Light is a caring community for survivors, families, friends, and caregivers. We offer a safe space to share experiences, gain practical resources, and build meaningful connections with others who truly "get it".
