Who We Are
A Wellness-Focused Nonprofit Supporting Mothers and Sons
MPOSS stands for Mothers Protecting Ourselves & Our Sons.
We are a nonprofit organization dedicated to helping mothers — especially Black and minority women raising sons access emotional wellness support, healing programs, mentorship resources, and community-based care.
Our mission is rooted in healing generational trauma through compassion, connection, education, and practical support. We believe when mothers are supported, families become stronger and communities begin to heal.
Based in Southern Maryland, MPOSS creates safe spaces where women and youth can grow emotionally, mentally, physically, and spiritually.

Why MPOSS Exists
Breaking Cycles Through Healing, Support, and Community
Many mothers are carrying the weight of trauma, stress, grief,
financial hardship, and emotional exhaustion without access to meaningful support. At the same time, many young boys are
growing up without mentorship, emotional guidance, or safe
spaces to develop confidence and purpose.
MPOSS was created to change that story.
Our programs focus on family wellness, emotional healing, trauma-informed support, and youth development. We provide
resources that help mothers feel seen, supported, and empowered while helping sons develop identity, emotional strength, and leadership.
We are building a culture where healing replaces survival mode and where families can move forward with stability, hope, and purpose.
