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.

Mothers & More has over 100 mother-run groups all over the country! It's a great resource and community for both new and veteren moms! Members take part in many family oriented activities , but there are plenty of opportunities to get together with your fellow mom to have a great night out! Not only is Mothers & More an amazing group of women who have each others backs, but they also do great things in their communities too!

You'll find great posts from Mothers & More members all over the country as well as our CEO, who had the honor of the first blog post!  I'm honored to be a part of the blogging team, and you'll see members blog posts going live in the next few weeks! I can't for you all to read my first post! There will be hot topics, current events, Mother and Family issues and so much more! This blog is for ALL mothers out there, so stay tuned for some great reading!

Our 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.
Caregiving work is real work with real social and economic value.
All women deserve recognition and support for their right to choose if
and how to combine parenting and paid employment.
All mothers, all children and all families are unique. We respect the
wisdom of each mother to decide how to care for her children, her
family and herself.
Mothers have the right to fulfill their caregiving responsibilities
without incurring social and economic penalties.
The transitions women make into and through motherhood are challenging
and can be difficult.
Together, mothers are powerful.
