Funding for this workshop was made possible through a grant from the Area Agency on Aging. Central Coast Funds for Children Supports the Teen Academic Parenting ProgramGrant Funds will assist teen parents and their children with basic needs SAN LUIS OBISPO: Early parenthood puts teens and their children at risk of life-long poverty. Contributing to this issue is a 60% high school drop-out rate for teen mothers. Additionally, babies born to teens are more at risk for low-birth weight, referrals to Child Welfare Services, and developmental delays. Early parenthood, and the associated poverty, low-educational attainment, and various other risk factors, are often intergenerational. In 2011 and 2012, grants from Central Coast Funds for Children have supported the Community Action Partnership of San Luis Obispo County Teen Academic Parenting Program (TAPP) in its mission to improve outcomes for pregnant youth, teen parents, and their children. In 2012, TAPP served 151 pregnant youth and parenting teens and 148 of their children and had 74% high school graduation rate (for age eligible youth). TAPP finds success with its one-to-one client support and client directed goal setting. Pregnant youth and teen parents are paired with a case manager who helps them navigate challenges and set goals, including high school completion and college or job training enrollment. TAPP provides support services that guide pregnant youth and teen parents as they work towards financial independence and successful parenting, providing education on child nutrition, child development, and engaged parenting skills. Additionally the case managers provide assistance with finding prenatal care and/or a pediatrician, enrolling children in child care, and accessing other appropriate support services help pregnant and parenting teens find the resources they need to be successful parents. One current TAPP client explains “If it wasn’t for this program, I don’t think I would have even gone back to school and attempted to get my GED.” Grant funds from Central Coast Funds for Children allow TAPP to provide parenting support groups, transportation assistance, and help with basic needs such as diapers, formula, and other essential baby items—essential services that are not covered through the program’s funding from the Adolescent Family Life and CalLearn programs.
