About

Losing a parent, growing up without a mother or father and/or growing up in foster care are some of the most difficult experiences a child can endure. "Parents For Grown-Ups" is a matching app that connects motherless, fatherless and parentless adults with parent figures, peers and mentors who can help to substitute the loss of having that essential presence in a child's life.

 

Parentless adults make up some of the highest percentages of people with emotional and social disorders and are significantly more likely to be incarcerated and repeat dangerous familiarly cycles. 

​

Parents For Grown-Ups seeks to alleviate some of the stresses on social workers, therapists and government entities that become responsible for parentless adults. Users will have access to a unique community of individuals who share similar experiences and can provide guidance and support.
