GRACE House reopened August 2021 as a Men’s recovery residence and is currently accepting applications.
The vison of the Grace House started as a community vision lead by Bill Mitchell. Bill saw the need for recovery support as he visited people in jail. Bill reached out to Judge Sabrina Bell and other community and church leaders with his long-term vision of love and support to people in the thralls of addiction and their families. For one year meetings were held monthly at Hillview Christian Church with strong attendance and community support at every meeting. Committees were created and a Board of Directors was formed. Suggestions for a name were requested from the community and a highly creative Crawford county resident submitted the name Giving Recovery A Chance Everyday- GRACE…it was a winner! The overwhelming support from the community has allowed us to stay up and running.
For two years (2018-2020) we helped more than 30 women with recovery from substance use. Seeds were planted and families reunited. We and with remarkable collaboration from a neighboring addiction recovery residence, we moved our women over to the Genesis House, a new women’s recovery residence located in Corydon, Indiana in September 2020.
