Grace's Helping Hands

Providing training for returning veterans and minorities

What We Do

Graces Helping Hand Inc.  is a not-for-profit formed in Illinois but currently services the States of Missouri and Illinois.

Graces Helping Hand was formed to help better our community and lend a hand to individuals who need it the most.  We are focused on assisting low income families, previously incarcerated individuals, our homeless and returning veterans learn new skills that they can use to better their lives.

These skills include:

  • Warehouse operations and management
  • Forklift operation
  • Office administration
  • Retail operations and management
  • Inventory management
  • IT bench repair
  • Sales and account management
  • Soft skills
  • and more…..

We believe by empowering our staff with these skills, we allow them to grow and develop the skills to be a productive member in our community.  We are looking to help them change their paradigm and not just provide training.  In some cases it can take years to correct what has happened to them.

Some of the services we offer to our team members:

  • Counseling:  We will assist with finding counseling for anything that can help our staff to feel whole.  This can include abuse counseling, drug counseling, career counseling, anxiety or stress disorder, PTSD or anything else that might keep them from achieving all that they can.
  • Scholarship Program:  We offer a scholarship to team members to assist them with going back to school and achieving an education in a field they will enjoy
  • Job placement:  When a team member completes our program we will offer a to assist them in finding a long term position. We will also help them to transition to their new “family” and leave the door open in case they ever need/want to return.
