Teen Moms’ Program

LifeGuard Brochure

While teen pregnancy rates have decreased over the last twenty years, the United States still has the highest rates of teen pregnancy, birth, and abortion in the fully industrialized world. Four in ten girls become pregnant at least once before age twenty and thirty percent of those who give birth will have another child within two years of the first.

LifeGuard Youth Development seeks to educate teen moms and empower them to make healthier relational choices for life. LifeGuard provides teen moms with support through classes and mentors. Throughout the twelve month program participants receive instruction in Independent Living, Banking and Finances, Computer Skills, and Relationships. At the completion of the program the participants receive a computer, printer and internet service to use the skills they have learned and to aid them in their future endeavors!
