posted on Jul 7, 2005 (modified on Jul 7, 2005)

I am thirty one years old, I have three children ranging from twelve to five. My children are my life and come first before all else. Three years ago I decided to attend college to better my life and my childrens life. I am a political science major and wish to attend law school in the future. I receive a pell grant and federal unsub and sub. loans. I made the choice last year to focus on my children and school only. I was working but found that my children were lacking in time spent with me. Thank you for any sites that you might direct me to for other programs.

Me again---just to let you know...when it comes to single mother's attending school there are so many programs...you would qualify for housing (in most cases)...that is how I did it...I went back to school full time...received AFDC, housing, food stamps, went to community agencies for assistance for the bills I could not cover (i.e. churches,project independence, town trustee,etc.) I did this for 1 1/2 yrs and earned my assoc degree...it is rough but now I qualify for higher paying jobs.

Dawn I don't know the ages of your children but almost all states have HeadStart Programs or the equivalant of that program...it is usually free or a small co-payment to provide educational daycare for your children...meals included..sometimes even transportation..if you qualify for foodstamps and because you need it while you attend school ...then you should qualify for this too. Look up the headstart website and it should tell you if they have that program near you

Besides federal agancies, there are meny non-governmental organizations that offer grants and loans. Also, many states have state-level grant programs. What state are you from? Do you happen to know if your site has such programs? Maybe there are, so why don't you visit your local government's site?
