• Intensive case-management service, which includes, but is not limited to referrals to appropriate agencies to enable teen parents and their families to access resources and services.

• A fully staffed Early Headstart 0-3 childcare classrooms at both SFHS & CHS sites. 

• Home visits by nurse and/or case manager to homebound pregnant and parenting teens so they can continue school and access necessary prenatal and postpartum care.

• Education and support groups for young fathers and other family members.
