MOTHERS & MORE MISSION
Mothers
& More is a non-profit organization dedicated to improving the lives of mothers through support, education and advocacy.
We address mothers' needs as individuals and members of society, and promote the value of all the work mothers do.
The Mothers & More Mission is based on the following core
beliefs:
- A mother is more than any single role she plays at any given point
in her lifetime. She is entitled to fully explore and develop her identity as she chooses: as a woman, a citizen, a parent
or an employee.
- All the work mothers do whether paid or unpaid has social and economic
value.
- All women deserve recognition and support for their right to choose
if and how to combine parenting and paid employment.
-
- The transitions women make into and through motherhood are challenging
and can be difficult.
- Together, mothers are powerful.
