~ SMART (Single Mothers Academic Resource Team) helps Oklahoma women complete college

Today there are approximately 30,000 single parent students attending Oklahoma colleges and universities. Overwhelmingly, these are women balancing parenting, college and jobs. SMART (Single Mothers Academic Resource Team) is committed to identifying and advocating for pathways so that all single parents can complete a higher education in Oklahoma.

SMART is the result of collaborative funding on the part of the Women’s Foundation of Oklahoma, the Oklahoma State Regents for Higher Education (OSRHE) and GEAR UP.

If you would like a free copy of the SMART magazine which discusses Oklahoma single moms attending college, contact Dr. Erin Taylor, SMART Project Coordinator at (405) 225-9163 or email her at etaylor@osrhe.edu/.
