Teen Parent Program
This program works to counsel, educate, and support teens Cape-wide
as they incorporate the role of parent
into an already challenging time in their lives. Our Teen Parent
Coordinator works with families to provide a host of services including:
outreach and referral, peer group support, individual counseling,
life skills training, parent education, and transportation to appointments,
as well as full-time, quality child care services for those teen parents who qualify.
Criteria for acceptance into the program include: teens must
be 19 years or younger, must be enrolled in a high school or GED program,
or have a high school diploma or GED and must be working
and/or attending school for at least 20 hours per week. Once enrolled,
the parent is required to meet with a program counselor three hours
a month, attend a monthly
group meeting, and spend
two hours each month with their child(ren) in a family day care
home or center-based child care setting.
