Describe the challenge you want to address:
Absentee parent crisis. Too many parents (mostly women) being burden and derailed when both parties should be handling the responsibility equally. Lack of support for single women / parents. Lack of food pantry serving hot meals for parents not just the elderly.
What is the solution to the challenge?
Programs to help single parents locate absentee parents hiding from the court system. Allow programs where single mothers can go to get hot meals like provided for the aging. *grow our own food with garden clubs - offer incentives
