Independence Through GRACE

Independence Through GRACE At GRACE, we believe every person is a child of GOD who deserves to be valued, accepted and respected.

We help adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities grow in independence by providing faith-based programs that empower participants to see themselves as valuable contributors to their community. Adults who participate in our faith-based enrichment program are offered a variety of activities that suit their personal interests. Session activities are designed to enhance social skills, spiritual depth and understanding, physical mobility and creative talents. Our staff works to discover each person’s strengths, with the ultimate goal of assisting our participants in reaching their maximum potential while they gain confidence in their abilities.

We couldn't be more grateful for all the love and support we received in 2025 and can't wait to see what 2026 has in store for us!

All we know is we'll continue to lean on Him, our community, and each other in order to continue our vision of empowering those in the IDD community to see their value, live in independence, and contribute to our loving community❤️

We all have different challenges we face everyday, but it’s how we react that really counts✨

Like Kinzie, all of our participants are learning how to overcome their own challenges everyday, and we couldn’t be more proud💕
