Grace House Ministries Giving hope to Alabama girls in foster care. Coleman Outreach Center.

Grace House Ministries provides loving, Christian care to 40 Alabama girls in foster care on our residential campus in Fairfield, AL. All of the girls who call Grace House home have been removed from the custody of their families due to physical/sexual abuse, abandonment/incarceration of a parent, and/or neglect. 40 girls rely on Grace House to meet their basic needs like food, clothing, shelter, and education every day, just like other children rely on their biological families. Since our founding in 1992 by Mama Lois Coleman, Grace House's campus has grown to include 8 properties which provide a safe refuge for 40 girls ages 6-19.5 years old. Our residential campus includes 3 group homes, 2 Transitional Living Program homes, a Campus School, a Community Garden, and the future home of the Lois G. Grace House extends services to an additional 10 girls โ€“ former residents who are enrolled in college and/or working โ€“ through age 21. As the only program in the Birmingham area dedicated exclusively to providing services to Alabama girls in foster care, Grace House is meeting a critical need. A refuge like Grace House is needed because the girls we serve are our future community members, leaders, mothers, and workforce. Grace House works every day to equip and empower girls with the educational, emotional, and spiritual tools they need to break generational cycles and create transformational changes in their own lives, families, and communities.

What a crew! ๐Ÿ’ช We loved having the team from on campus for a Serve Day filled with energy and a whole lot of willingness to jump in wherever needed.

The team helped give our campus a refresh by painting the front porches of Lois and Harris Homes and the back porch of Rachel Home.

And their support doesnโ€™t stop there! Capstone is also working with us on an upcoming parking lot project, supporting Grace House through its golf tournament and has three incredible women serving on our Junior Board.

We are so grateful for partners like Capstone who find so many meaningful ways to invest in Grace House and the girls we serve.

๐Ÿ€ Teamwork means showing up for one another โ€” on the court and in the community. ๐Ÿ€

We loved having at Grace House for a serve day. The team put that spirit of teamwork into action by tackling projects across our campus and lending a hand to some of our neighbors on our block.

Weโ€™re grateful for a team and coaches who understand that being a good teammate goes beyond the game.

Thank you, MBHS Basketball, for being great teammates to Grace House and our community! ๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ’›๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ’›

Life lately at Grace House....The past few months have been full of new experiences and meaningful connections!

From our first Hand in Paw visit and a Lunch & Learn with attorney of Ken Perry Law Firm, LLC, to Anthem Womenโ€™s Night and a special luncheon with our friends, the Liberty Ladiesโ€”our staff and girls have had many opportunities to learn and connect.๐Ÿพโš–โš–

Meanwhile, our community has been showing up in BIG ways through a successful supply drive and improvements around campus, including new fencing and parking. ๐Ÿ”จ๐Ÿš—

And one of our favorite moments? Cheering on the Crimson Tide at the home opener alongside some former Grace House girls! ๐Ÿˆโค๏ธ

Thank you to every person and partner who helps make moments like these possible.

There is something powerful about the connection between people and animals.

Research has found that interaction with animals can help lower stress, and studies with children have shown that dogs can provide meaningful social and emotional support during stressful experiences.

For girls who have experienced difficult circumstances and significant transitions, opportunities to feel safe, connected and simply enjoy the moment matter.

We are so grateful to Hand in Paw and their wonderful volunteers for bringing a little extra comfort and joy to Grace House. ๐Ÿถ๐Ÿ’•
