Raven's Haven Exotic Bird Rescue, Inc. was established in March of 2001 when they became aware of the large number of parrots and parrot related species that were living lives of neglect and abuse. Parrots are now the third most popular pet in the United States. Along with that popularity has come the many problems that are normally encountered with more traditional domesticated species such as dogs and cats.

These parrots, which are usually bought on impulse and without knowledge of their emotional needs will, in many cases, react to the lack of attention by their guardians in an unfavorable manner. In the effort to stop this endless cycle Raven's Haven was created to offer an alternative to people who needed to find a caring "home for life" for their bird and to offer a retirement home for the birds deemed unsuitable for placement.
