Jessica ENCARNACION

FOUNDER, EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR + SOCIAL JUSTICE ADVOCATE

Former Domestic Violence victim turned advocate, educator, community leader, gardener, social entrepreneur, and mother.

Alumni of the Fashion Institute Of Technology with a Bachelor's Degree in Production Management: Fashion Related Industries.

For over 10 years she has passionately served various non-profits, social service agencies, community-based organizations, and churches.

In 2017, after surviving a 12-year Domestic Violence relationship she joined Rhema's New Life Center's Women's Empowerment Group which changed her life forever through Mental Health Counseling and spiritual support.

As she consistently worked on her healing journey, God sent countless women to her with similar stories of trauma and abuse. This opened the doors for her to personally support women and their children. 

In 2020, she formed the Grace Advocacy Group, as an empowerment group to provide hands-on support to Domestic Violence, abuse, and trauma survivors.

Now it has expanded to a Christian-based organization that empowers, educates, and elevates women to live their best lives holistically.
