One Parent Scholar House is a program for 80 single parents who are full-time students in a post-secondary educational institution. The primary purpose of the program is to help parents and their young children develop the educational and family life skills needed to achieve self-sufficiency. Single parents and their dependent children are the focus of the program. One Parent Scholar House is a comprehensive program which includes housing, counseling, workshops, support from neighbors and staff, and special activities.

These activities enhance health maintenance, parenting skills, management of family resources, nutritional knowledge, problem solving, work skills and job- search techniques. Even through an ongoing pandemic and uncertain times, our residents have been able to continue their education, take classes remotely and receive the support they need from our dedicated staff.
