Abstract

Research pertaining to single parents attending colleges and universities is sparse but demonstrates that these students, who are mostly women, endure greater educational challenges than "traditional" students. A support group was organized for single mothers attending a large university in the south-central United States with the purpose of offering students who are single mothers the opportunity to form a network with others like themselves. The group had positive implications for the mothers. The need for such groups on other college campuses will be established.
