Powerful Moms Who Care
|
A little about ourselves...We are a group of women working together to create change. Being a mother is challenging - making sure your children are safe, protected, and living to their full potential is difficult. Encountering all of the obstacles that come with being in poverty only adds to this challenge.
We are women - mothers - who come together to identify real solutions to the struggles that come with raising children while experiencing poverty. We work with decision-makers from a variety of groups to create a community that is supportive and safe for all families. We are Powerful Moms Who Care.

Our Priorities
Childcare:
- Accessible and affordable childcare that offers assistance to families during non-traditional business hours.
- The creation of more permanent supportive housing units that are made specifically for families. The needs of single people and families can be drastically different. Designating PSH specifically for families is important.
- Making sure that buildings where families do reside are secure.
