We must not, in trying to think about how we can make a big difference, ignore the small daily differences we can make which, over time, add up to big differences that we often cannot foresee. ~ Marian Wright Edelman

Welcome! GraceSource, Inc. (GSI) was founded in 1979 by Grace Parker Clement, a trustee of Yuba College and a much loved and admired community leader. GSI was created to help women and families lead fulfilling lives through better education, employment, social and mental health. This is reflected in our Mission: “GraceSource, Inc. is dedicated to helping women and families lead fulfilling lives. We link individuals to education, career and counseling services in the Yuba-Sutter area. We also support educational opportunities for young women, empowering them to make successful lifelong choices.”

GraceSource, Inc. was founded in 1979 as Yuba Sutter Enterprises Unlimited. It was renamed in Grace's honor after her passing some years ago. GraceSource currently manages two local Family Resource Centers, is the lead agency for an AmeriCorps program (a national service program) providing local people an opportunity to serve their community , and is one of five statewide sites for the Supporting Father Involvement research project coordinated at UC Berkeley.

Through its network of community-based programs GSI has served over 1,500 families in the past ten years, making our community stronger by positively affecting the lives of hundreds of our region’s children, parents, and residents.
