The City of Grapevine is GRACE’s home. It is vibrant, growing, unique, and thriving. But if there is one quality the GRACE staff is thankful for above all others, it’s that the staff, elected officials, and leadership committees of the city strive to remain aware of all the facets of their city.
The City of Grapevine has been an ally of GRACE since its founding. We have partnered together for decades to provide a safety net of support and resources designed to assure that the residents of Grapevine and the service industry workers that make this city the destination it is are being well cared for.
At the February 6th City Council meeting, GRACE CEO, Rebecca Cox gave city officials a ‘State of GRACE’ update ahead of the release of the funds already approved by the council to support GRACE programs and services. Here are the highlights presented to City Council:
