The Single Parent Resource Center

The Single Parent Resource Center

The Single Parent Resource Center, Inc., located in mid-town Manhattan, was started in 1975, as a small pilot program of the Community Service Society of New York.

Now an independent, not-for-profit organization, SPRC is the only comprehensive agency devoted solely to providing programs and services for New York City’s single parents and their families.  Our services are available to support all single parents, including those who are living in transitional housing; struggling with substance abuse; or have been recently incarcerated.

To further our mission, SPRC does the following:

1. Develops responsive programs for single parents and their families to fulfill unmet needs.

2. Advocates for improvements in social practices, policies and regulations, which effect single parent families.

3. Promotes a positive image of single parents and their families within the New York City community.
