Why focus on single-parent families?
More than 80% of single-parent families in the United States are headed by single women – hardworking mothers struggling to make ends meet. When these parents receive opportunities to get an education, earn more income and achieve self-sufficiency, their children will benefit, their families will grow healthy and their futures will be transformed.
