About Us:
The Grace House began in 2000, when the Director of the Grant County Jail Chaplaincy Program, Jack Brady, urged Dr. Doug Daugherty to spearhead a community effort to develop a recovery home for released criminal offenders and other addicted individuals. Jack reported a "tremendous need" for sober and supportive housing for addicted men in Grant County. Subsequently, a group of IWU senior Addictions Counseling majors became involved in a service-learning project that included assessment of related community needs and program development. The results of their work highlighted the need for a recovery home in Grant County, along with many other agencies also verbalizing the unmet need. A Grace House board was established in 2002, forging partnerships with the Grant-Blackford County MHC, Workforce Development, Community Corrections, the Grant County Rescue Mission, and Indiana Wesleyan University.
The Grace House exists today as a non-profit organization that relies primarily upon the goodwill and donations of local churches, businesses, and individuals.
