  Empowering teen mothers, transforming lives

Our Stories

The young moms in Teen Success, Inc.'s program are strong and resilient. They have many obstacles to overcome in pursuit of their high school education such as shaming from educators and other students, punitive absence and make-up policies, finding affordable childcare, and lack of support for breastfeeding moms.

Time and again, the young women in our program prove that they can overcome any obstacle in order to provide their child with a better life, just like every parent strives for their child, regardless of their age. They are proof that with the right support, young women who become mothers in their teens can attain success in school and in life, for themselves and their children. These are their stories.
