Posted by ECMC Foundation on November 17, 2020

Fueled by ECMC Foundation and in celebration of Roadtrip Nation’s release of “A Single Mom’s Story,” which chronicles how single mothers overcome barriers in education to find fulfilling careers, we are teaming up to host “Together We Thrive,” a week long digital event series for single mothers and those who support them.

Whether you’re a policymaker, an educator, or a single mother yourself, you can choose from a series of workshops that highlight the ways in which we can work together to give single mothers the tools they need to thrive as they pursue their educational dreams.
