Mission
Beliefs
- A mother is more
than any single role she plays at any given point in her lifetime. She
is entitled to fully explore and develop her identity as she chooses:
as a woman, a citizen, a parent or an employee.
- All the work mothers
do whether paid or unpaid - has social and economic value.
- All women deserve
recognition and support for their right to choose if and how to combine
parenting and paid employment.
- All mothers, all
children and all families are unique. We respect the wisdom of each
mother to decide how to care for her children, her family and
herself.
- Mothers have the
right to fulfill their care giving responsibilities without incurring
social and economic penalties.
- The transitions
women make into and through motherhood are challenging and can be
difficult.
- Together, mothers
are powerful.

********************************************************************
Mothers & More is comprised of women from a variety of
backgrounds. Some members are first-time mothers who have
recently left the paid workforce, while others have been sequencing for
years. Some members decide to pursue meaningful volunteer
work during their years at home. Other members opt for
part-time employment or launch their own home-based business.
Others are looking to transition back into the full-time paid workforce
but with family-friendly flexible options such as flex-time, job
sharing or telecommuting.
It's difficult to go from the intellectual and social stimulation of
full-time employment to the often isolating world of
motherhood. If you need someone to talk to besides Elmo or
Dora, please come check out Mothers & More.
