About this service
The M.A.P. program cultivate meaningful relationships between pregnant or parenting teen girls and trained adult volunteer mentors. These one-to-one community-based relationships are set up to provide structure and support, while making time for necessary play. The mentor is a role model, adviser, and friend. They are there to help support resilience and self-esteem, reinforce strengths, increase parenting capacity, and offer critical support at what can be an emotional and challenging time. At times, the mentee may want some relaxed or fun time away from baby; at times they may want a mentoring visit at home while parenting, and at other times they may want just a listening ear from someone who understands what this adjustment is like. This is a dynamic program, focusing on the variety of needs adolescent parents face at this time of life.
