Law & Grace was incorporated in New Orleans, Louisiana in 1998,by founder and president, Barbara ANN COLEMAN Jackson (formerly Fenelon). “Ann” (as she is widely known) selected “Law & Grace” based on her paralegal and seminary degrees. Law & Grace, Inc., has 501(c)(3) Internal Revenue status.

Law & Grace is a social ministry corporation. Targeted at social subjects, Law & Grace had begun publishing and distributing bi-monthly newsletters. A quote from 1999 newsletter: “The gap is widening between the haves and the have nots. Consequently, loneliness, poverty, selfishness, apathy, substance abuse, anger, and impatience are rampant. All too often, hurting and dangerously despairing people make their pain public, by their acts of violence.”

Several factors have made it necessary to curtail Law & Grace’s operation –in particular, at this time, Hurricane Katrina. However, although not a newsletter, in January 2006, Ann wrote and published her Katrina-related essay entitled: “Casualties. . .Coming To A City Near You. . .” The essay is provided here. Ironically, social problems that were cited in the 1999 newsletter mirror Ann’s January 2006 essay.

Ann Coleman is also the author of: A Marriage Made in Heaven ©1997, Providence House Publishers.
