## Centering Parenting Group

The Teen and Tot Program’s hallmark service is a 10-session prenatal education course in which a group of expectant young parents due around the same time, meeting in a warm, supportive setting instead of a sterile exam room.

Benefits of completing the course include better health outcomes, self-care, self-confidence, more one-on-one time with a healthcare provider, support, friendship, fun, and a focus on different aspects of newborn care and development—all targeted to the needs of teens who are parenting.
