Frequently Asked Questions.

What is Outlaw Grace?

  • An Outlaw Grace event is split into two sections.

    Section One-

    A 50 minute set of music is shared with clients. The performer describes the point in their recovery in which they wrote it, their feelings and emotions during the time of its writing, and their current reflections on the song.

    Section Two-

    The performer(s) participate(s) in an open Q&A discussion group in a style familiar to clients in treatment.

  • Mike Sartain, known onstage as SARTAIN and Jenna Hufford, known onstage as Jenna Jane are Outlaw Grace’s current performers.

  • Outlaw Grace is available for booking for inpatient/IOP treatment centers. We are not currently booking sober living centers.

  • No. Outlaw Grace speaks all languages of recovery.

  • Outlaw Grace respects the clinical model and recovery language of each facility we serve. We can adapt tone and language to support the center’s client population and therapeutic goals.

    At the same time, Outlaw Grace is not a promotional arm of the treatment center. We do not recruit or navigate clients into a specific recovery pathway or endorse any one model as the only valid path.

  • No. Outlaw Grace is apolitical and is not affiliated with any specific religion, church, political party or movement. 

    We welcome people of every gender, orientation, faith background, and no faith background. Our performers are human beings with their own beliefs, and those beliefs may show up in their music. However, the songs selected for the Outlaw Grace presentation reflect the mission of Outlaw Grace: recovery, connection, and community. 

  • Transitioning out of treatment is one of the most vulnerable points in recovery. Relapse rates for substance abuse disorders are commonly estimated between 40-60%, and research consistently points to social support, recovery identity, and connection as important protective factors.

    Outlaw Grace creates a recovery-centered experience that makes clients aware of a real community available to them as they transition from treatment to everyday life.
