We meet you where you are — and help you get where you want to go
Welcome to One Parent.
We understand the road you’re walking — because we’ve been there too.
At One Parent, we help bridge the gaps that many single parents face, connecting you with vital resources, emotional support, and practical solutions to help you and your children build a stronger, more stable future.
While governments and nonprofits offer various programs, navigating them can be overwhelming when you’re already balancing so much. That’s where we come in — making the process simpler, more personal, and genuinely supportive.
Our mission is deeply personal. Our leadership team comes from single-parent homes, and we understand the challenges and barriers that can make accessing help difficult. We’re here to meet you where you are, listen with care, and recommend personalized steps that lead to positive, lasting change.
If you’re ready to take the first step, we invite you to complete the application below.
Our team will carefully review your information and reach out to create a customized plan to support you and your family.
Please note: We are currently assisting Ontario residents and look forward to expanding our reach in the near future.

What We Offer
We’re here to help single parents find stability and strength—emotionally, financially, and personally. Whether you’re facing a crisis or ready to take the next step toward growth, our programs are designed to meet you where you are and help you move forward with dignity.

Support Areas
Through our care team and partners, we help you access:
Housing & Shelter
If you’re at risk of eviction or need a safe place, we’ll guide you to housing supports and shelter referrals.
Food, Clothing & Daily Essentials
We connect families to local food banks, clothing donations, and hygiene resources to help relieve immediate stress.
Therapeutic Coaching & Counselling
You’ll have access to trauma-informed coaching and counselling for stress, emotional fatigue, grief, parenting overwhelm, or just needing someone to talk to.
Employment & Financial Support
From job-readiness programs to school re-entry, budgeting help, and income planning, we’ll guide you toward long-term financial stability.
Childcare & Parenting Resources
We help you access affordable childcare options and tools to strengthen your bond with your children while also taking care of yourself.
Bi-Weekly Mom Support Groups
Every two weeks, we offer safe, supportive meetups (in person and online) for single moms. These are spaces to:
- Share real-life experiences
- Build friendships with others who understand
- Hear from guest speakers on parenting and wellness
- Breathe, laugh, and feel supported—without judgment
You don’t have to carry everything alone.
You’re Not Just a Case—You’re Family
