WHAT ARE THE CHANCES OF A CHILD GROWING UP IN POVERTY?
  • If the mom gave birth as a teenager​

  • If the parents were unmarried when child was born

  • If the mom did not receive high school diploma or GED

THE STATISTICS

For every problem there is a solution, and our solution is Christ-centered!    Single moms are overwhelmed and often feel defeated as they struggle to provide for their children.  Without intervention, single moms will fall prey to the welfare system or get stuck on the Working Poverty Cycle. 

 

Our goal is to provide the resources necessary to equip and empower the moms so they too can live an abundant life filled with hope.

THE REALITY

In 2015, the number of young moms births in Palm Beach County was 2,547. In the same year, for the state of Florida it was 48,426

According to 2019 U.S. Census Bureau, out of 11 million single parent families with children under the age of 18, 80 percent were headed by single moms

Families headed by single moms are among the poorest households, more than a third lived in poverty, and as such, are extremely vulnerable to homelessness.

62% of single moms will drop out of school before completing their education, and less than 2% complete college by age 30

80% of dads walk away from any responsibility or pay less than $66 per month

Among children living with mom only, 40% lived in poverty

Single moms often spend over half of their income on housing expenses and a third on child care, leaving them with less money for educational expenses.

The median income for families led by an single moms in 2018 was about $45,128, well below the $93,654 median for married couples

Welfare becomes a never ending cycle that will be passed on from generation to generation
