They are designed to engage single mothers in structured conversations centering around the challenges and triumphs of single mothers.

:: More about the campaign
70% of African American children are raised by a single mother. A large percentage of these children are male. Often these male children do not have a lot of contact with their fathers. We believe that it is vital for mothers to learn more about male parenting and male development.
