“My client advocate had been the greatest help to me through this difficult time, and I’m so happy I chose to do ĒMA.”

“Before ĒMA, life felt like one crisis after another. I was overwhelmed trying to hold everything together for my kids. Through ĒMA, I finally finished something and that graduation meant the world to me. When we lost our daughter, the love and support from my advocate, Bravely, and our church carried us through. I’ll never forget how they showed up for us.”
“When I first came to Bravely, I didn’t even know if I wanted to keep my baby. I’d lost so much, including my first little boy, and I was just trying to survive. My advocate and the team at Bravely saw me through every step and they reminded me that joy was still possible. Now, my baby is here, we have a home, a church, and a fresh start as a family. I’m so thankful for how Bravely walked beside me.”
The Every Mother’s Advocate (ĒMA) program is a court-approved, prevention-focused program designed to support moms like you who may be at risk of losing their children. You’ll be paired with a trained ĒMA Advocate who builds a meaningful relationship with you, providing social, emotional, and practical support to help you achieve stability and keep your family together.
You qualify if you’re a mom experiencing challenges such as poverty, risk of family separation, or if you’re working toward reunification with children in foster care. The program is designed to support you wherever you are in your journey, and your advocate will work with you personally to meet your unique needs.
The program typically lasts for 10 weeks, with your ĒMA Advocate investing about 2 hours per week with you. Sessions are flexible and can be done virtually or in person, based on what works best for your schedule.
During each session, your ĒMA Advocate will:
- Review your personalized action plan and progress
- Set weekly tasks to help you move toward your goals
- Provide guidance, education, and holistic support through a structured curriculum
- Be a voice for your needs in the community and help you stay connected to services and resources
Every session is centered on building a trusting relationship with you and helping you take concrete steps toward stability and family preservation.
Through the ĒMA program, you’ll receive one-on-one advocacy and support from the very beginning. Your ĒMA Advocate will walk alongside you, helping you navigate challenges, access resources, and set achievable goals. Many moms find that this relationship and guidance help them gain confidence, stay connected to support, and create a stronger, more stable future for themselves and their children.
Together, we’ll help you find the tools and encouragement to move forward with confidence.
