Jennifer DaSilva - Simply Grace

On this episode of The Heart of North Texas, Zoe Martin hosts Jennifer DaSilva, the executive director of Simply Grace.

 Jennifer DaSilva shared her inspiring journey of recovery and leadership in helping women overcome substance use disorder. Simply Grace operates five sober living homes in the Dallas-Fort Worth area, an intensive outpatient program (IOP), and a thrift store that supports its mission. Jennifer, who has been in recovery since 2013, transitioned from sales to nonprofit work after witnessing her son's excitement for his job, which sparked her desire to find passion in her own work. She emphasized the high-accountability nature of their program, which supports women in their sobriety journey through structured housing, therapy, and movement-based psychotherapy. Simply Grace also offers volunteer opportunities and welcomes community involvement through donations, thrift store support, and fundraising events like "Recovery Has Got Talent." The organization serves as both a recovery resource and a community center, providing women with essential tools to rebuild their lives.
