Single Mom Strong
Single Mom Strong is a Sacramento-based nonprofit that stands beside single mothers and their children with practical support and a welcoming community. Their belief is simple and powerful: with the right tools and encouragement, families can thrive.
What started as a local effort has grown into a village—one that offers care for children, confidence for moms, and connection for both. Programs are designed to be accessible, respectful, and results-oriented, meeting families where they are and helping them take the next step forward.
What they provide
- Quality early learning and childcare with the EmpowerME Preschool & Childcare, making dependable care attainable for single-income households.
- Career advancement support—from resume coaching and mock interviews to a free Career Clothing Closet—so moms can pursue opportunity with confidence.
- Community and belonging through empowerment workshops, “Mom & Me” outings, and supportive gatherings that reduce isolation and build durable networks.
- Enrichment for kids—tutoring, camps, and hands-on learning partnerships—because a child’s growth is central to a family’s future.
