The Parents Under 25 Program (P25P) serves pregnant and parenting youth ages 14 to 25. We aim to increase access to healthcare and supportive services, promote healthy child development, and strengthen family relationships to advance the overall wellbeing of young parents and their children.

Our program is supported by the Massachusetts Department of Public Health through its Massachusetts Pregnant and Parenting Teen Initiative (MPPTI).
