Supporting Mothers.
Strengthening Families.
Restoring Hope.
Second Chance Motherhood Of Florida is a Central Florida nonprofit walking beside mothers and babies in crisis — with emergency care, mental-health support, and a community that says you are not alone.
About SCMFL
A second chance begins with someone who shows up.
Founded by Central Florida mother Mel Phanord, SCMFL exists to make sure no mother walks through pregnancy, postpartum, or a family crisis alone. Rooted in faith and driven by action, we deliver practical help and lasting community.
