Adolescent Parent Support (APS) Program

The Adolescent Parent Support (APS) Program of the YWCA provides resource and referral services and emotional support to pregnant and parenting teens in Wayne and Union Counties. These services are provided at no cost to the teen. APS seeks to identify the most pressing needs of the teen and then offers assistance through education and referrals to the community support services.

The primary objectives of APS are to increase the pregnant teens chances for a full term delivery of a healthy child, encourage the teen to stay in school or work toward a GED, and to foster healthy parenting behaviors.

Referrals are taken at the YWCA at 765.966.0538.
