Q:
What resources are available to my 17 year old teen mom niece?
My 17 year old neice is wanting to come live with me. She is a teen mom whom has no idea of how to be a mom. To make matters worse, she is a survivor of childhood molestation and is in need of couseling, an education and life skills training. I can do some of these things but I have no idea where to start or whom to talk to.
Can someone please point me in the right direction. Is there a program that will help me help my neice?

Hello Kauman,
I was browsing through this sight and I saw your comment here asking for some help to point you in the right direction to get some help for you and your neice. My suggestion is to call your local HHS office in your town to see if they have a program called Transitional Living( TLP) or MGHTLP for pregnant or parenting youths. If not then try looking one up that may be close to where you live on the internet. This program will help a youth 16 to 21 years of age who is homeless with or without children. They will be able to help her attain a GED, Learn Life Skills such as Budgeting, Social Skills, Parenting skills, Cooking skills, Job skills,and many other skills to help her to learn how to become an independant person. I hope this information has helped. Good luck and have a wonderful day!
