The Oaks Ministry has appointed Dawn Grieco to the position of program director.

Grieco has been leading Celebrate Recovery Inside at Chester County Prison for a number of years in order to help to create a bridge for those returning to the community. Recently, she earned a Correctional Ministries certificate with a specialization in re-entry services through Wheaton College's Billy Graham Center.

Grieco will be responsible for expanding the Oaks Ministry's offerings for its residents, collaborating with other churches and nonprofits, and raising funds to help execute the organization's strategic plan as the ministry focuses on long-term growth and sustainability.

The Oaks Ministry provides transitional housing with a faith-based structured program to help women in need find hope, healing and restoration. Although the ministry is based in Oxford, women from any area may apply.
