The Northwest Oakland County Chapter of Mothers & More would like to invite you to our    

OPEN HOUSE

Wednesday, October 23, 2002

7:00pm

Highland Senior Center (Located on John St.,  just S.of M-59 and W. of Milford Rd.)

Topics: Financial Planning & Family Traditions

Mothers & More is a non-profit membership organization that cares for the caregiver.  We provide a nationwide network of local chapters for mothers who are by choice or circumstance altering their participation in the paid workplace over the course of their active parenting years.  Our chapters are structured to support a mother as she navigates the challenges of her daily life whether she is a full-time family caregiver or struggling to achieve a better balance between the demands of paid work and family care. 

Through our chapters and other services, we provide opportunities for mothers to connect with one another in ways that assist them in developing their unique identities as women and help them move more confidently through the transitions that affect their family, work, and life. 

Mothers & More champions the value and necessity of all mothers work to our society - paid and unpaid, within and outside of the home.  We strive to raise awareness about the fact that mothers live and work in a society that presents significant barriers to their ability to succeed as women, citizens, parents, or participants in the workforce.  By uniting mothers to act on their own behalf, we seek to eliminate policies, practices, and attitudes that unfairly impact mothers as caregivers.

Our meetings focus on topics that affect us as women and parents.
