Our Beginning

Grace Housing Complex was founded October 8, 2013 by Cynthia Dailey, mother of our CEO/President Justin Dailey. Cynthia came from humble beginnings being raised in the Robert Taylor Housing Projects, on the rough south side of Chicago. Her struggle and experience lead to the development of the core mission of Grace Housing Complex. She envisioned an organization that could help low income mothers in need by means of providing affordable housing, civil service, & community resource. We are now making her vision a REALITY!

 

“Growing up in Chicago isn't easy, Chicago makes our youth grow up fast. Chicago makes you have tough skin. Fear, sorrow, and grief is sowed deeply in the souls of the Mothers of this City. I speak the sentiments of all the Mothers in Chicago who are tired of shedding tears and are ready to see a change in this city. I feel the team assembled at Grace Housing Complex can be the long term organizational solution to the problems we face in the Inner City. Change starts with Action..."
