Gracie Richards

As an alum of The Chattanooga Fellows, Gracie wholeheartedly believes in the opportunity for spiritual growth and deep connection to the city that the program offers. Gracie grew up in Pittsburgh and Nashville before attending Calvin University, where she received a degree in Psychology and Studio Art. Through Calvin’s Outdoor Recreation program, she became a gifted facilitator, instructor, and community-builder. Before joining the Faith Co-op team, Gracie served students and families through her work with Bridge Outdoors, a nonprofit, after-school adventure program. Gracie is happiest in the outdoors, and she and her husband, Ben, also love to cook and gather community in their home.
