Who we are

Saving Grace Ministries, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, is transforming the lives of thousands of homeless individuals through care, dignity, and purpose. Operating a NYS Certified Emergency Shelter and a Transitional Living Program, we are working to lift the lost, restore hope, and build community for men across Western New York.

Our Approach

Collaborative

We believe the services we offer are vital to our community, working alongside strategic partners to meet the needs of clients exactly where they find themselves.

Faith Driven

SGM was founded on the premise that our faith drives service that often times government cannot achieve. Through strategic partnerships, linkage agreements with area stakeholders, and the support of the community of faith, SGM continues to reach thousands of individuals in need of shelter, re-entry services and life support.

Our Services

Case Management

Case management and service coordination are the cornerstone of SGM program services. In addition to linking clients with medical and mental health services, case managers teach clients self-advocacy skills to equip them with the ability to locate and sustain housing and employment after program completion.

Basic Needs

Food, clothing, and shelter

Men and women are released from correctional facilities with $40 and the clothes on their back. SGM provides warm, home cooked meals and links clients with community resources to secure clothing, including professional attire and special work-related needs like work boots and uniforms.

Life Skills Training

Since 2007, Saving Grace has provided life skills training in housing, employment, financial literacy, self-advocacy, and decision-making to equip clients for long-term success after they complete the "Grace House" Program. It is not enough for a client to complete the program and transition into independent housing if they do not have the tools needed to sustain that housing.
