Rise with Grace
Our signature Rise with Grace case management program is a seven-phase process with checkpoints along the way. Success for our families is individualized within the context of a defined framework, and our coaches and case managers work tirelessly to support our families in defining and achieving their goals.
Our Approach
Each family in our Rise with Grace program is provided with not only a case manager, but also a volunteer family coach, to provide community, support, and companionship, throughout their journey. If you are interested in becoming a family coach, please email Susan Cousins at susanc@givinggrace.org or by filling out our online application below!

Signature Case Management Services
Coaching
Our coaches provide community, support, accountability, and companionship throughout this journey by building intentional relationships with our clients.
Life Skills Classes
These classes provide our clients opportunities to learn and grow while building community. Our courses cover topics such as collaboration and sharing, parenting, budgeting and finances, college/education and job skills, and emotional health.
Transportation
Giving Grace was founded on a holistic approach to homelessness, which includes the need for transportation — Without a vehicle, it is extremely difficult for families to secure a job. Our transportation branch assists families with transportation expenses, driver courses, and ultimately in securing their own vehicle.
If you are interested in donating a vehicle, please email Sherri Williams at sherriw@givinggrace.org.
Childcare
Inability to afford reliable and quality childcare is one of the most straining issues for struggling parents of young children. We remove this barrier by partnering with local agencies such as Fred Moore Day Nursery School, covering childcare expenses for our families, and even assisting moms in our program in becoming officially licensed as in-home childcare providers. Additionally, we always provide volunteers for childcare during our family events and courses. If you are interested in becoming a childcare volunteer, please email Susan Cousins at scousins@givinggrace.org.
Rent & Utility Assistance
Many families may be one bill away from eviction, or living in the dark without electricity or heating. Giving Grace is able to assist them with these living expenses and allow them the opportunity to get back on their feet and avoid the toll of relocating or the threat of homelessness.
