AWARE collaborates with local artists to produce comics illustrating single parents’ stories

March 8th, 2017 | Family and Divorce, News, Poverty and Inequality

Single parents face serious difficulties accessing public housing. From unrealistic income ceilings to a lack of transparency and clarity in policies, their families can experience stress, uncertainty and financial pressure, overcrowding and tension in relatives’ homes, and frustration with poorly explained and uncertain processes.

We’ve recently embarked on a fantastic collaboration with four local artists to illustrate some of these barriers and challenges – in comic form! Huge thanks to Clogtwo, Inkten, Weng Pixin and Neo Ann Gee for bringing their stories to life. Check them out on the #asinglelove website!
