SUPPORTING SURVIVORS
Healing Hearts Initiative
Grace and Mercy Establishment is proud to be the only standalone sexual assault recovery facility in Gastonia, NC.
We exist because sexual assault is a deeply traumatic and often overlooked issue—and survivors deserve a space dedicated solely to their healing. Unlike programs that offer general services, our facility was created with one clear purpose: to provide focused, trauma-informed care that honors the unique needs of survivors.
At our center, we offer a comprehensive range of support services—including individual counseling, peer support groups, and educational resources—all designed to promote healing, empowerment, and long-term well-being. Survivors don’t just find services here—they find safety, dignity, and a path forward.



We welcome volunteers, advocates, and supporters to join us in our mission to raise awareness, eliminate stigma, and advocate for the rights of sexual assault survivors.
At Grace And Mercy Establishment, our mission is to wholeheartedly support sexual assault victims and survivors, while passionately raising awareness and advocating for prevention.
Every contribution to Grace And Mercy Establishment helps us provide essential services to survivors, facilitate community education, and advocate for policy changes to better protect and support sexual assault survivors.
