What we aim to solve

SOURCE: Self-reported by organization

Women experiencing an unexpected pregnancy find themselves without the love and support they need, and although the church should be the first place they turn to, historically that has not been the case. We believe the church is the answer, and Embrace Grace exists to equip the church how to love and support single and pregnant women through support groups.

Our programs

What are the organization's current programs, how do they measure success, and who do the programs serve?

Embrace Grace

Embrace Grace is a one semester program offering a support system, providing spiritual, emotional and physical support for single, young women experiencing an unplanned pregnancy. The Embrace Grace digital curriculum paired with the study guide conveys the heart of God through simple, yet powerful lessons about Gods love and grace for each of us. Whether a single, young woman with an unplanned pregnancy was raised in church or has never heard the message and hope of Jesus, she will encounter God in a way she never has before.

Charting impact

Four powerful questions that require reflection about what really matters - results.

VISION: for every girl with an unplanned pregnancy to have a church to go to for spiritual, emotional and physical support

MISSION: to inspire and equip the church to love on single and pregnant young women and their families

Embrace Grace encourages single and pregnant moms to choose life for their babies by providing support groups in churches to love and support them spiritually, emotionally, and physically. Empowering them for healthy motherhood. Working in partnership with churches across the nation our Christian-based support groups (12-20 week sessions) help single moms learn their identity in Christ and provide practical skills to help them be the woman and mom that God has called them to be. Through dynamic teachings and personal testimonials of women with similar experiences, the sessions help expecting mothers find a place of hope, healing, and belonging.

We have 1,104 groups in all 50 states and 9 countries. Our goal is to partner with every healthy church and our staff is dedicated to equipping the group leaders to walk alongside these moms and dads.

Embrace Grace has grown by leaps and bounds since becoming a non profit in 2012. We now have 1,104 small groups at churches in all 50 US states and 9 countries!

There are 300,000 churches in America and we would like to partner with every healthy church to ensure that no single mother walks alone.

Balance sheet

Fiscal Year: Jan 01 - Dec 31

SOURCE: IRS Form 990 info

The balance sheet gives a snapshot of the financial health of an organization at a particular point in time. An organization's total assets should generally exceed its total liabilities, or it cannot survive long, but the types of assets and liabilities must also be considered. For instance, an organization's current assets (cash, receivables, securities, etc.) should be sufficient to cover its current liabilities (payables, deferred revenue, current year loan, and note payments). Otherwise, the organization may face solvency problems. On the other hand, an organization whose cash and equivalents greatly exceed its current liabilities might not be putting its money to best use.
