Single Parent Advocate, a local 501(c) 3 non-profit organization providing resource connections, growth-based training, and support for single parent families, based in Dallas Texas and the surrounding areas since 2009. Additionally Single Parent Advocate corresponds with families from all over the United States and consults non-profits, churches, and businesses on how to build a program for success in serving and engaging single parents within their respective organizations.
1 in 4 children in the US are growing up in a single parent home. Single mothers and fathers have much higher likelihood to live in poverty, as they face incredible work/life balance issues. Single Parent Families have unique needs and issues constantly affecting their inability to overcome ruin. The emotional and financial toll on most of these families is actually helping to create an even younger population of single parents who are just children themselves.
Single Parent Advocate is committed to breaking this cycle and to help build resource connections for families that help them to become more productive, more resourceful and more informed on how to be the best parent they can be for their children.
Single Parent Advocate and it's growing community has already provided auto repair, school supplies, food, toys, beds, family portraits, computer assistance, and hope to families that are in the gap now, and the organization vows to continue making a profound difference in the lives of single parents and their families in the years to come.
Single Parent Advocate is committed to educating, equipping, and empowering Single Parent Families with resource information, practical assistance, emotional encouragement, and social networking such that those who need help get help – and those who want to help, can.
In the heart of North Texas, Single Parent Advocate stands as a beacon of unwavering support for those who brave the challenges of single parenthood. As we approach North Texas Giving Day, in partnership with the Communities Foundation of Texas, the call for solidarity grows stronger. We envision a community where single parents are empowered, not hindered, by their journey. Your support on this pivotal day will fuel our mission to provide comprehensive resources, mentorship, and a nurturing network that single parents can lean on. Together, we can transform struggles into successes, uncertainty into confidence, and isolation into a sense of belonging. Join us on North Texas Giving Day to champion a cause that impacts not just families, but the very fabric of our society. Every contribution you make reverberates through households, and every step you take toward empowerment resonates for generations to come.
Stand with Single Parent Advocate, stand with North Texas, and stand for a future where no single parent walks alone. Locally over 250 families (including 500 children and teens) are supported.
