Single parents fear losing their homes

IRELAND ranks as the fourth most socially unjust country in the developed world, according to the results of research by the Vincentian Partnership for Social Justice, and Trinity College.

That leaves lone parents as one of the groups most at risk, because they are the poorest in the State, according to SPARK.

This organisation started with a diverse group of single parents communicating through social networking channels, in response to proposed budget cuts.
