In Her Hands
In Her Hands, GRO’s flagship project, is a guaranteed income initiative focused on putting a solution to financial insecurity in the hands of women in Georgia. No strings attached.
One in four American children lives with a single parent. However, America’s policies and institutions are still modeled around the traditional two-parent household where one parent works and the other stays at home. Hosts Kimberly Brooks and Gina Brillon unpack how that idea contributes to the modern-day caregiving crisis, how it is hitting single-parent families the hardest, and the vast disparities in policies across the U.S. that support solo parents.
Advocate for moms to be supported and paid by advocating for paid paternal leave, onsite daycare, a living wage, universal preschool, and onboarding programs for women returning to work. Take action with Marshall Plans for Moms. Learn more about changes to the care economy at Melinda Gates’ Pivotal Ventures. Check out In Her Hands, a pilot project of Give Directly and Georgia Resilience Fund that puts money into Black mothers’ hands as a universal income experiment. These non-profits provide financial resources and housing support for single mothers.
