When women don't get the help they need after abuse they may:
- Return to their abuser
- Live with emotional damage for the rest of their lives
- Unknowingly perpetuate the cycle of abuse by not knowing how to help their children heal and become healthy adults
Sustainable Change Is Needed
This is where Grace’s Place comes in.
A survivor participating in Grace’s Place programs has the continued support she needs to heal and start life over free of abuse. She receives education to open her eyes to a new way of being in the world for herself and her children. She is a member of a community that cares, that listens, that acts as a witness to her pain, and that provides her the companionship of fellow travelers creating a new path in life.
Grace’s Place Foundation’s programs fulfill a need that isn’t being addressed for sustainable change in the lives of women and children who have been harmed by domestic violence.
Long Term Program
This one-year program is designed to support the deep healing and personal growth of women and children affected by domestic violence, offering much more than the immediate assistance provided by emergency shelters or legal advocacy services. It’s about giving survivors the time and space to truly heal—physically, emotionally, and spiritually—so they can rebuild their lives with confidence, strength, and a renewed sense of self. This program moves beyond survival, which is short term focus, to empowering participants to create a future filled with hope and transformation, breaking the cycle of abuse for good.
Research Based
This program is thoughtfully crafted and grounded in the latest research on trauma and healing, ensuring a compassionate and scientifically informed approach to recovery. It is based on the proven components of post-traumatic growth, which show that people can not only heal but thrive after experiencing adversity. By integrating state-of-the-art research on trauma, the program addresses the profound impact trauma has on the mind, body, and spirit. With a focus on holistic healing, it supports participants in reconnecting with their inner strength and resilience. This research-based approach ensures that each individual is given the tools and the time they need to truly grow, providing a safe space for long-term healing and personal transformation. The ultimate goal is to help participants build a future filled with confidence, hope, and empowerment for the rest of their lives.
Compassionate Community
We create and sustain a compassionate community, which plays a central role in fostering healing and personal growth. Through dedicated mentorship, coaching, and skill-building activities, we empower individuals to rebuild their confidence and develop a sense of belonging. Our approach not only nurtures growth within the program environment but also extends beyond it, helping participants establish supportive networks in their daily lives. By cultivating connections both inside and outside the program, we provide the tools and encouragement needed for individuals to thrive, supported by a community that uplifts and inspires them on their journey forward.
