Scott Murray, of the Scott Murray Scholarship Foundation and Murray Media joins forces with Rhiannon Graham, Miss Capital City and a social work graduate student, who shares her platform of supporting single families, stemming from her upbringing in a single-parent household and Stacie Martin, founder of Single Parent Advocate, highlights their 15-year mission to help families. Jelesa Warren, a single mother and project manager, discusses her journey and the importance of self-awareness, commitment, and community support. The conversation emphasizes the significance of resources, dreaming, and surrounding oneself with positive influences to navigate the complexities of single parenthood.

They recommend single families pursue action items such as:

• Cultivating a support system and community to help navigate the challenges of single parenthood.
• Committing to being present and engaged with your children, while also acknowledging your own limitations as a single parent.
• Keeping dreams alive and pursuing their goals, and to utilize available resources and scholarships to support their children's education.
• Prioritizing their children, even if they struggle to find balance for themselves.
• Surrounding oneself with positive role models and communities that can help single parents find the resources they need.
