About Us

Savanna’s Grace was founded by Amy Cates, inspired by her daughter Savanna — a joyful reminder that every life has purpose and beauty. Seeing the need for a place where adults with special needs could continue to grow, connect, and belong beyond their school years, Amy set out to create more than a program — she built a family.

At Savanna’s Grace, we provide a Christ-centered, compassionate environment where every ability is celebrated and every individual is loved. Through meaningful activities, friendships, and faith-based encouragement, we nurture the gifts within each person and help them discover a renewed sense of purpose.

Rooted in faith and built on love, Savanna’s Grace exists to remind every participant and their families that they are not alone — they have a place to grow, to belong, and to be loved just as they are.
