Meet Gracie
Gracie’s House was formed in 2024 in response to a continuing need for safe spaces for LGBTQ+ youth in rural areas.
Gracie’s House is named for Gracie King, a talented musician and artist, and a vocal advocate for queer youth in her small-town school district where she witnessed bullying, homophobia, transphobia, and violence toward LGBTQ+ young people.
When Gracie died in 2018, her mother and brother wanted to honor her passionate activism, her love for the arts, and her awe of nature.
