I support M.A.W. because it's a great program for low-income families that helps enroll children in federal programs, and groups that teach job and life skills to impoverished families. M.A.W. helps communities hold fund-raisers to benefit it's children and families and helping parents feel more confident about their caregiving skills, teaching them how to better interact with their children, and connecting them to community resources that serve families.  I believe the students in M.A.W. programs are less likely to be in trouble with the law, better able to resist peer pressure, and more likely to attend college than their peers.
