About Us

The Young Parent Living Program is an apartment model facility where teens can learn the necessary skills to become successful young parents. The program provides constant 24-hour-a-day staff support. We provide referrals for all medical and educational needs, as well as transportation to and from appointments. Weekly groups run by staff at the program educate young parents on parenting topics and independent living skills. We provide referrals for therapeutic services, childbirth education, daycare enrollment, as well as assistance with DTA, WIC, and housing.


Community Ties

The Young Parent Living Program partners with many other community programs in order to offer the best care and support. Some of our affiliates include: Healthy Families, WIC, New Hope, Southeast Behavioral and Trauma Center, Northeast Behavioral Center, Attleboro Family Planning, Project Connect Attleboro and Sturdy Memorial Hospital.

Family Work

When appropriate, we warmly welcome and encourage family involvement in every step of a young parent's journey. Fathers are invited to participate in Healthy Families home visits and benefit from the support offered through the Young Parents Support Program.

We also open our doors to extended family and other loved ones who play a meaningful role in a young family's life. Whether it's a casual visit, a community cookout, or a festive holiday celebration, we invite families to join us in creating a supportive environment where everyone feels valued and connected.

Values and Beliefs

We believe in the power of resiliency. We work to build self-confidence in all we serve. We believe that hard work pays off. We believe that all children deserve a safe environment. We believe in the power of education to change lives.
