    Scott Murray, of the Scott Murray Scholarship Foundation and Murray Media joins forces with Rhiannon Graham, Miss Capital City and a social work graduate student, who shares her platform of supporting single families, stemming from her upbringing in a single-parent household and Stacie Martin, founder of Single Parent Advocate, highlights their 15-year mission to help families.

    • Prioritizing their children, even if they struggle to find balance for themselves.
    • Surrounding oneself with positive role models and communities that can help single parents find the resources they need.
