Civic & Social Organization - Toronto, Ontario, Canada
We are a Canadian Association of single, separated, divorced or widowed parents who have come together for friendship and support. Our Association was established as a Non-Profit group in 1973 and we obtained National Charity status in 1981. We have a Charter, a Constitution, a Board of Directors, and Bylaws. Since then, a lot has changed in society — and so have we!!! Our basic mission — to provide support to one parent families of every kind — has not. We are one parent families who have joined together for the mutual benefit of both parent and child. We are run by members who volunteer their time without remuneration. All members are expected to volunteer in some capacity to support the organization and its activities.Our organization gives you the opportunity to meet people who have also been through the experience and are ready to develop their new lives. You can share your experiences. You will gain new confidence when you discover others who have established a new way of life. You will make new friends that you will have for life.There are many great activities for both you and your family. Thanks to the efforts of our volunteers, our family activities are subsidized for the children of members. Both you and your children will benefit. "A happy parent creates a happy family"Who can join the One Parent Families Association?Membership is open to all single parents, whether by separation or divorce, death of a spouse or having never been married.Custody of the children is not a factor. The non-custodial parent is still a parent! Our close "family" of members and regular family activities can help the children adapt to the changes in their family.Age of the children is not a factor either. We have members with small children, members with teenagers and members whose kids have grown and made their own way in life.
