5 Things You Should Know About Unstuck Ministries

On May 14, 2026, The Life of a Single Mom® announced a name change to Unstuck Ministries. After 15 years of offering single mom-exclusive services to over 1.25 million women, the organization made a national announcement to transition its name to Unstuck Ministries – Where the Bound Become Free.

As with any major business change, the transition has come with questions about current programs, potential new programs, and specific changes that will impact the organization over time. As such, Unstuck Ministries wanted to offer some insight on what you should know about the change.

1. Unstuck Ministries will remain one of the nation's leading providers of single mom-centric programming and curriculum.

Having helped over 1 million single mothers and worked with over 2,000 churches to start single moms’ groups, we still have an immense passion for serving women parenting alone. That will not change!

2. Nothing we offered before the name change will be eliminated.

That’s right. No service or program for single mothers that was offered by The Life of a Single Mom has been eliminated with our name change to Unstuck Ministries. Only new services are being added! This is a win for both single moms and ALL women.

3. Our stewardship and excellence will not change.

With countless awards and recognitions from accrediting organizations, such as Candid GuideStar, Charity Navigator, and Better Business Bureau, Unstuck Ministries will continue to steward clients, donors, volunteers, and programs well. We have the same executive leadership team that we’ve always had, and all management of business activities are continuing to be ran with great efficiency.

4. New programs are coming.

Unstuck Ministries will continue to offer single mom support groups, Single Mom University®, and various single mom events and services, as a national leader in single mom programming. However, expect to see more women-centric services emerge over time that serve as single mom prevention, targeting at-risk women, trauma victims, abuse sufferers, the impoverished, or other women who find themselves stuck and desire freedom. These new programs will include new life skills books, eBooks, podcasts, videos, and webinars, as well as trainings, events, counseling, and more.

5. We obey the Lord.

While change can always be hard, the Lord gave clear vision to our CEO & Founder, Jennifer Maggio, and our Board of Directors to expand our tent pegs and increase our reach to serve even more women and children. Our immense growth since 2011 and the impact we’ve had in outcomes in the lives of hundreds of thousands of women can be utilized to serve all women and make lasting change in our community, state, and nation.  This is an exciting time to get to know Unstuck Ministries.

We are reminded of Isaiah 43:18-19 today, as we reflect on a new era of ministry for Unstuck Ministries:

“But forget all that—
    it is nothing compared to what I am going to do.
19 For I am about to do something new.
    See, I have already begun! Do you not see it?
I will make a pathway through the wilderness.
    I will create rivers in the dry wasteland.”

Learning How to Pray

Unstuck Ministries has now served over one million single mothers over the last two decades, and we have covered so much through the years in articles, podcasts, videos, eBooks, etc., including grief & trauma, parenting, forgiveness, bitterness, spiritual growth, money management, and so much more. We’ve covered ALL….THE….THINGS! But the topic we’re covering today is the catalyst to it all. Prayer. It is prayer that shifts things. It is prayer that promotes our intimacy with the Lord. It is through prayer that the Lord often teaches us. Sadly, too many Believers in Christ have a weak prayer life. How can you be in relationship with the Lord and not ever talk to Him? This must change. Many Believers often struggle in prayer, because they were

What To Do When Your Child Is Hurting by Jennifer Maggio

I was 14 years old when a dear friend’s father left her mother.  She was devastated.  The fighting had gone on for months. It had been tense at home, but she never imagined her parents would actually split.  We stayed up and cried together many nights in those first weeks and months.  We mourned the loss of the family that would never live in the same home again. We mourned what once was and what could now never be. I listened as she shared her pain and fears of what would eventually happen and how life would never be the same. Her pain became my pain.  I just wanted to help her heal, and mostly, I just felt helpless.   My mother died when I was

Take the Lead by Denise Adcock

I am an avid hiker and lover of the outdoors. When I’m not hiking, I spend my time biking, kayaking, or walking.  Being in God’s beautiful creation brings me joy!  As a single mom, I shared my love of nature with both of my children. All three of us had bikes, so several times a week we’d ride from our house to a nearby park and hit the trails.  When I look back on this today, those trail rides were some of the best experiences we had together as a single-parent family. It helped us let go of our burdens and refocus on what mattered most, our precious family.  Being a mom requires courage and leadership. John Maxwell says, “A leader is one who knows the way, goes the way, and shows the
