Grace Centers of Hope believes that not only is it important to help facilitate the recovery of the hurts of the heart but we also believe in growing active members of society. Part of our program involves preparing those residents for a career that fits their skills or cultivating new skills through finding schooling opportunities that fit their needs. We also offer an opportunity to obtain their GED if they don’t already have one through our extensive licensed GED training and testing facility.
