Who We Are

 

Mothers & More is an international not-for-profit organization supporting sequencing women - mothers who have altered their career paths in order to care for their children at home. Mothers & More addresses women's personal needs and interests during their active parenting years; advocates for policies that accommodate sequencing; promotes recognition and respect for sequencing mothers and respects the right of all women to choose if and how they combine parenting and paid employment.

 

The Cleveland West Chapter of Mothers & More has been formed to provide a support group and social activities for sequencing women, and as an advocacy group for employment and family issues for women in northeastern Ohio (including, but not limited to, Lakewood, Rocky River, West Park, Fairview Park, and Cleveland). It is an organization for all women dealing with the transition between paid employment and at-home motherhood.   We are a fun and diverse group of women with a variety of activities and projects and supporting all backgrounds and family structures.


What We Do

Serving over 7,500 mothers in the U.S. and beyond, Mothers & More is a non-profit membership organization that cares for the caregiver. We provide a nationwide network of local chapters for mothers who are – by choice or circumstance – altering their participation in the paid workplace over the course of their active parenting years. Our chapters are structured to support a mother as she navigates the challenges of her daily life - whether she is a full-time family caregiver or struggling to achieve a better balance between the demands of paid work and family care.

 

Through our chapters and other services, we provide opportunities for mothers to connect with one another in ways that assist them in developing their unique identities as women and help them move more confidently through the transitions that affect their family, work and life.

 

Mothers & More champions the value and necessity of all mothers’ work to our society - paid and unpaid, within and outside of the home. We strive to raise awareness about the fact that mothers live and work in a society that presents significant barriers to their ability to succeed as women, citizens, parents or participants in the workforce. By uniting mothers to act on their own behalf, we seek to eliminate policies, practices and attitudes that unfairly impact mothers as caregivers.
