Mothers On the Move (M.O.M):
Being a mom is hard enough, and it is especially harder when you are in it alone. At GHRC, we believe being in a relationship does not always mean support is available. This is why we are here to help. The purpose of Mothers On the Move (MOM) is to assist low-income single mothers/grandmothers and their underaged children (<18) in achieving independent, self-sufficient lives through group discussions, support from peers and case managers, identification of strategies that allow for positive parenting and enhancement of self-esteem, identification of impacts caused by domestic violence, substance use, and mental health conditions, and access to services.
