Today, mothers of various races and walks of life are represented in our ranks. Mocha Moms, Inc. began with the publishing of a newsletter called Mocha Moms in the hopes of connecting at-home, married mothers of color with each other. The newsletter was intended to encourage moms to feel good about their choice as well as to provide information to help them be the best, most important influence in
their children’s lives. It was distributed to over 100 moms across the country in the spring of 1997. During the summer of 1997, moms in Prince George’s County, Maryland decided to form a support group called Mocha Moms, Inc. There are now over 100 chapters of Mocha Moms, Inc. throughout the United States and the organization contunes to grow and evolve to meet the needs of our moms, their families, and their communities.
