Saving Grace Women’s Home – Arkansas is a faith-based residential recovery program for women in the Russellville area, offering a free 12-month inpatient program for those struggling with addiction and life-controlling issues. The Arkansas center is part of the Saving Grace Women’s Home network, which operates five locations across the United States.
A Women’s Residential Recovery Program in Pope County
The Saving Grace Arkansas campus is a 4,100 square foot home set on 11 acres of property in Dover, in Pope County, Arkansas. The facility includes five bedrooms, eight bathrooms, and a 4,000 square foot workshop, with capacity for up to 32 residents. The program is built around a Christ-centered residential discipleship model and incorporates individual counseling, group share, spiritual growth, life skills development, a work study program, and community outreach activities. The organization asks a $1,000 induction fee upon entry but states it has never turned anyone away due to inability to pay, with the majority of operating costs covered through private donations.
Leadership at Saving Grace Arkansas
The Arkansas location is led by Executive Director Laura Kilgore, a graduate of Adult and Teen Challenge in Springfield, Missouri, who previously served as a marketing director within the organization before being promoted to her current role. She is a licensed minister through the Global Ministries Network and is working toward a bachelor’s degree in business from Missouri State University. Organizational leadership is shared with the broader Saving Grace and Project Hope network, including CEO Don Nordin and COO Michael Vecchio, himself a program graduate.
