Home for pregnant teens?

Does anyone know what would be the best way to find pregnant teens in need of a place to live? Im in Oregon and I take in one pregnant teen at a time and provide her and her baby with free long term room (her own room/nursery), board, guidance, medical insurance, transportation, and everything else. I also involve her in teen parenting groups, provide free child care while she goes to school, and counseling if needed. She gets one on one help.


I believe this is better for some, rather than a group home. My last mom just got her first apartment and Im have trouble filling her spot. Also I do this all out of my own pocket, I was a teen mom and I enjoy helping other teen moms.

I'm in Vancouver WA, and we have several organizations that help teen mothers. I am sure there are organizations in Oregon that do the same thing. I would try contacting them and see if they can help you. I also was a teen mom and give time to help teen moms. Good for you for giving back and making a positive out of your situation. As hard as it was, it was so worth it.





Good luck
Reply:First off what your doing is such a great thing. If I had the time and money I would love to do something like that. And for doing that, you are a wonderful person. As for filling the spot, you might want to try going to your local planned parenthood/family planning clinic and talk to them. Maybe you can post something at the clinic. Thats the only thing I can really thinkg of. Good luck!
Reply:Yes try putting up flyers but you should make them work as they'll need job skills once they are ready to get an apartment.
Reply:Doing everything for free is not helping these girls.
Reply:I'd say put up a flyer at the teen parenting groups or at local shops and at support places and womens refuges
