Welcome to Single Mother Families Australia Inc.
Championing Single Mothers and their Children since 1973
About Us
Single Mother Families Australia (SMFA) was conceived in 1973 as a lead national voice with policy insight and expertise. We commenced life as the National Council of Single Mothers & their Children Inc and changed our name to Single Mother Families Australia in 2023 as part of our 50 year celebration.
SMFA is an organisation dedicated to single mother families. We have an unrelenting quest and commitment to seek safer lives with agency, control and economic certainty for single mother families.
What We Do
SMFA provides a range of platforms that give voice and respect to the lived reality for single mother families. Our key focus is for single mother families affected by hardship, poverty, and gender-based violence. SMFA is informed by the women who contact us, our own research and research collaborations.
SMFA gives voice to matters of concern and seeks solutions for single mothers through our engagement with the media, within parliament settings, at various conferences and committees, and through our extensive networks.
