Each participant received support tailored to her personal, academic, and career goals. Services included individual and group mentoring, financial stipends, transportation assistance, mental health referrals, and life-skills workshops. The program emphasized holistic care, aiming to increase self-sufficiency, confidence, and long-term stability for young mothers and their children.
