YOUNG PARENT PROGRAM
Program Description:
This is for pregnant and parenting teens and is a combination of the Transitions Program and additional support for those who are parenting. The district staff work with the referring school to develop unique solutions for the parenting teens so they can fulfill their academic goals and take care of their child. This is a support based program with the option of the student joining the Transitions class (see Transitions link) as necessary. The district staff will also work with the family to look for support (medical, daycare etc) in the teen parent’s community. The referral process can originate from schools, other ministry partners or may include self-referral and is reviewed by the District Referral Team which includes the District Principal, Education Services.
