Adolescent Family Life Program

Adolescent Family Life Program

AFLP provides comprehensive case management services and a youth development curriculum to pregnant and parenting teens and their children. Our goal is to reduce repeat adolescent births, increase educational and vocational advancement, improve parent and child health, and create networks of support for pregnant and parenting youth.

Adolescent Family Life Program

Overview

AFLP is a voluntary program targeted toward expectant/parenting youth up to age 21. Case managers work closely with youth to improve the health and well-being of themselves and their children. This approach aims to develop their resilience by strengthening their developmental assets. Our adolescent patients are provided ongoing support and opportunities to build the strength and skills they need to thrive during and after they exit the program.

This program is currently available in Bakersfield, Arvin, Lamont, McFarland, and Delano.

To learn more about the program, please contact Monica Romero, AFLP Program Supervisor (661) 324-0293.
