Bringing the promise of education
to single parents for over 30 years
Selfpower is the power and confidence that comes from deep within the human spirit – once it’s realized, no one can ever take it away. Our role at Project Self-Sufficiency is to simply help single parents see it, believe it, and achieve it.
Our goal as an organization is to cultivate the grit and determination necessary for a lifetime of achievements for single parents and their children.
Barriers such as affordable housing, mental health services, access to quality childcare, reliable transportation, and other challenging circumstances require creative intervention and intensive, personalized advising.
When families are able to support themselves and activate their selfpower, our community is stronger.
Our Model
We partner with single parents on their journey to achieve a rewarding education and develop a career that matters.
From the beginning, every Participant is paired with an Advisor to create an empowering and trusting relationship. The first steps in the program involve stabilization, strengths-finding, and career counseling to build a personal plan for gaining more education and training. Our model has built-in resources, so Participants can be successful in their journey towards a better future.
