Mission Statement:
Generation Her is a non-profit organization operating in Southern California, that seeks to empower teenage mothers, ages 13-23, and their children by connecting them to a supportive community of other teen mothers and adult mentors, equipping them with desired life skills, and, ultimately, impacting their future in a positive way.
EMPOWERING TEEN MOMS: 600,000 TEENS BECOME PREGNANT EACH YEAR. GENERATION HER IS DOING SOMETHING ABOUT IT.
ABOUT US:
Generation Her is a 501c3 non-profit organization that was founded in 2009. Created from a lack of existing services for teen moms and pregnant teens, we wanted to give teen moms a positive place where they felt loved instead of judged.
We offer a weekly life skills program for teen mothers and pregnant teens at our 6 locations throughout Los Angeles and Orange County. Generation Her encourages setting educational and career goals for each teen mom that we work with and walks beside her to accomplish her goals as well as to provide a safe place of encouragement, hope and support through mentors and their fellow community of teenage mothers. Generation Her encourages independence through teaching life skill classes such as; budgeting, money management, job interviewing skills, resume building, cooking, self defense, nutrition, stress and anger management, relationship workshops and so much more. Generation Her is not only changing lives in the world of teen moms, it is also changing the community. The impact of a girl who will not stay on welfare throughout her lifetime and who is going to give her and her child a brighter future leads to a better economy and society.
51% OF TEEN MOMS NEVER GRADUATE HIGH SCHOOL,
WHILE 97% OF GENERATION HER TEEN MOMS ARE GRADUATING.
