Skills for Thriving Workshops
Hands-on classes that build confidence, healthy boundaries, financial know-how, and everyday tools for independence — skills that help prevent anyone from being trapped in a harmful relationship.
A Long Beach nonprofit serving Los Angeles County
Grow with grace. Stand strong in your roots.
Growth & Grace Space is a sanctuary for youth and adults — with open arms for survivors of domestic violence — offering the services, resources, and skills to build lives rooted in safety, dignity, and hope.
Our mission
Rooted in care.
Growth & Grace Space provides services and resources for youth and adults — primarily survivors of domestic violence — and opens classes and workshops to the whole community, so no one is left without the skills and tools to build relationships rooted in respect.
We believe growth and grace go hand in hand: the gentleness to be kind to yourself for where you have been, and the strength to keep putting one faithful foot in front of the other.
Our vision
A Los Angeles County where every person — survivor or neighbor — has a safe place to grow, a community to grow with, and the tools to build relationships that never trap them.
We imagine a generation that knows how to love with grace: others, and themselves.
Every seed deserves good soil — and every person deserves a safe place to grow.
“Be gentle with yourself. Be strong in your roots. Be disciplined and faithful in your actions.”
What we offer
Programs & Workshops
Every offering is built around one idea: give people real skills, wrap them in grace, and watch what takes root.
Classes for Youth & Adults
Open-to-all learning spaces where practical skills meet encouragement. Growth belongs to everyone — survivors, neighbors, and young people finding their footing.
Survivor Services & Resources
Compassionate, trauma-informed support that connects survivors to the resources they need to take their next step safely — at their pace, on their terms.
Every gift is stewarded with care and gratitude, and goes directly to programs serving our community.
Plant a seed. Watch someone grow.
Every gift goes straight into the soil — funding workshops, resources, and safe spaces for survivors and neighbors across Los Angeles County.
