Hip Hop Haven is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization serving youth in the Triangle area (Raleigh, Durham, Chapel Hill, and surrounding areas) of North Carolina.

Our mission is to provide a safe "haven" and recreational outlets for youth to experience and express the essence of hip hop--art, music, culture, and sport.

Hip hop is used as a vehicle to partner with youth and families in an effort to identify and address the most pressing, ongoing social problems in our community (i.e., poverty, racism, gangs, crime and violence, drug use, teen pregnancy, HIV/AIDS, education, etc.).
