SUPPORT HOPE FOR THE FUTURE

Almost one-third (27.8%) of single-mother families were “food insecure,” about one-ninth (11.7%) used food pantries, one third spent more than half their income on housing, which is generally considered the threshold for “severe housing cost burden.”

 

Families headed by single mothers are among the poorest households, more than a third lived in poverty, and as such, are extremely vulnerable to homelessness. Among all homeless families nationwide, about two-thirds (60%) were headed by single women with children — representing 21% of the total homeless population; nearly half were African Americans (49%).
