Programs described in its return (1)
- $1.7 million spent. We value the right of every young woman to obtain the education, skills, and support needed to have a healthy start in life for today and tomorrow. Thats why we provide programming to help pregnant and at-risk girls gain the skills they need to become independent. Independent Living Program In our residential group living environment, our young women receive 24- hour care and supervision. Parenting residents will have a single room and non-parenting residents may have to share a bedroom and bathrooms. The living room, classroom, and dining room are shared common areas in which our young women spend time bonding, watching TV, participating in activities, listening to music, and getting creative. We have family-style meals, and each of our young women are expected to complete chores consistent with other teens. Our Services -24 hour care and supervision in a group environment -healthy meals and snacks -prenatal care -parenting classes -education support for primary, secondary, and post-secondary programs -group and individual counseling -emotional support and encouragement -job readiness and life skills training -transportation -educational, cultural, and social activities -case management assistance with postpartum planning Our Impact This year has been one of the most transformative in our 127-year history. We made the intentional choice to pause, invest in our team, and strengthen our foundation before taking bold steps forward. Selling our historic group home, purchasing two new family-style houses, and launching our Success Coach model have set the stage for serving more young moms than ever beforeup to 45 families at a time, compared to the 16 we were limited to serving in our group home. We have grown in skills and systems. We have aligned our brand and mission, and we have built the infrastructure to scale impact for decades to come. This year marked an important milestone in our strategic plan, which concludes in June 2026, and we remain on track to achieve all of its goals. These achievements give us the confidence to begin planning for the next strategic phase, ensuring that our work continues to evolve to meet the needs of young moms and their children across South Carolina. 2024-2025 Highlights-Launched Major Gifts Campaign to purchase new homes -Youth & family focus groups launched to enhance service delivery -Technology investment to overhaul network security & mobile workforce systems -Launched Success Coach model & trauma-informed care initiative -Reached 50% of Major Gifts Campaign goal -Sold historic St. Margaret Street group home -Established endowment for organizational sustainability -Purchased two new homes -Public launch of 'Young Moms Together'
