What is Place of Grace?
Place of Grace is a Christian-based transition home for women transitioning from incarceration back into the Huntington Community. Place of Grace had its beginnings in the fall of 2009 when a group of concerned community members began volunteering their time at the Huntington jail. These volunteers quickly saw a recurring pattern among the incarcerated women: many of these women did not belong in jail but instead needed a support system to help them break free from addictive patterns that perpetuate an unhealthy and destructive cycle that is void of hope for a better future. Place of Grace began serving women in the Huntington community at the beginning of 2017.
