EMBRACE GRACE
This group provides emotional, practical, and spiritual support for single, young pregnant women who find themselves in an unexpected pregnancy. The primary goal of Embrace Grace is to empower the church to be a safe and nonjudgmental place for these young women to run to when they find out they are pregnant, instead of the last place they are welcomed because of shame and guilt. It is a 12-week program that teaches them about God's love and grace, and at the end we will give them a baby shower to honor them for
choosing life and to help provide for their baby’s needs.

Charting impact
Four powerful questions that require reflection about what really matters - results.
What is the organization aiming to accomplish?
We are a nonprofit, 501c3 dedicated to providing pregnant & parenting women with housing and support services. We are a Christian organization seeking to minister to women’s physical, emotional and spiritual needs. It is the ministry’s intent to assist the mother with life issues and to help her focus on a set of goals while she is in the program. This environment allows them to work on life skills that will lead toward building a stable home for their family. By teaching a model of responsibility regarding positive life choices, we resolve to break harmful generational cycles of poverty, abuse and addiction and promote godly living.
What are the organization's key strategies for making this happen?
We are a community based, adult-supervised, residential maternity home operating as a transitional living program to promote independent living.
We provide safe, supportive housing for single pregnant women who are unsupported.
We provide an atmosphere where women can work on life skills and goals to be a successful parent.
We teach basic life skills including money management, budgeting, consumer credit and use of credit.
