The BOSPP -- The Better Opportunity for Single Parents' Project
Denver and Texas Creek, Colorado,
United States
 This is a forming residential community that is currently plans to offer temporary and permanent housing and training for women experiencing crisis pregnancy. Temporary housing will be in a large house that will be funded by our very own franchise, where we will work and train on -the-job. Permenant housing will be a passive solar housing community. It will be run like a social enterprise. Those who join will be able to do so for free. We are currently offering a support group for single parents who home school.
