Support for Pregnant & Parenting Students
Student Support & Health Services (SSHS)鈥� Pregnant and Parenting Students program is focused on supporting the well-being of 麻豆果冻传媒 adolescent parents and their babies. Our goal is to maintain students鈥� academic success and support life skills to enter the world, college or career ready.
Once a student is identified as pregnant or parenting, a referral form is sent to the program Coordinator. The Coordinator will meet with the student to complete a collaborative assessment and provide them a welcome packet. The packet contains resources for health care, birth control, lactation rights and their student rights and protection under Title IX.
