Our Mission
Providing opportunities for individuals, families and communities to be stronger, healthier and more self-reliant
Grace Hill Settlement House works in partnership with neighbors and stakeholders to identify the social and economic challenges in North and South St. Louis, and establish families and communities that are strong and self-sustaining. Through multiple hub-like locations, thousands of St. Louis residents are impacted each year by the multitude of resources and services that Grace Hill Settlement House offers which include early childhood, youth and family supports, aging and special needs, and community and economic development. The role of Grace Hill is to develop the skills of residents, and to create opportunities for their personal advancement and that of their neighborhood. Each year, approximately 1,440 neighbors (known as resident volunteers) are engaged, trained, and they in-turn provide a direct resource to other neighbors. Last year, resident volunteers committed more than 122,000 hours of labor and service.
