Director Gamel Mcghee
I am a native of Franklin County all my life. I have been a therapeutic foster parent for 23 years and have been in the mental health field for 21 years. I have seen the break down where one service must stop and how the people do not know how to connect to another service they may need. I want to be able to connect the two together to make people successful with opportunities they need to enhance their lives.
Our Mission
Believe in Grace Resources, Inc. wants to help individuals and families by creating real change in our community. We will accomplish this by bridging the gap between the people we help and our local resources. We also want to help the youth who are aging out of foster care to prow individually and be able to impact our community with a healthy support system so that they may one day be able to self-advocate. We want to empower families with the proper support and access to resources to be able to create stable home for their children. We want the elderly to know we are here to serve them with services they need in our community. We are here ultimately to increase awareness of available resources to that our clients can overcome hardship and live fulfilling lives.

Thinking About Fostering?

SM's Story

Here's my story, growing up I didn't have much. My family & I struggled a lot. We stayed in a one bedroom apartment & there were 9 of us. My dad was never around he was abusive and an alcoholic. My mom was always there for me. She took care of me and my 8 other siblings. She struggled but, she never gave up. Once I turned 7 she said she didn't want to see me and my siblings struggle anymore. My mother ended up calling DSS and asked them to take us and put us in a safe home until she got back on her feet. She never gave up on us she tried so hard to get us back but, she just couldn't. I went to foster home to foster home and different schools for 6 years. Each home I never lasted a long time in. I was bullied and abused my whole life until I met my adopted mom. I came to her at the age of 13. Even though I was terrible and hardheaded she never gave up on me. She stayed with me and helped me through my struggles and trauma. She adopted me literally a year later and she became my bestfriend. I really love and appreciate her. She always manages to plan visits so I can still keep in contact with my biological family no matter how far they were. She bought me clothes, shoes, and gave me everything I needed. Still to this day she still supports me. I've been with her for 6 years now and I could never see myself with anyone else she is truly is a blessing. Just a little side note my adopted grandma adopted my brother so now we see each other everyday and I thank her also for helping and keeping us together. She's my bestfriend too.
