Adolescent Pregnancy Prevention and Services Program
Beginning in April of 2007, Sullivan County BOCES, in partnership with
Maternal-Infant Services Network of Orange, Sullivan, and Ulster Counties,
The Recovery Center, and the Sullivan County Center for Workforce Development
will partner to deliver the Adolescent Pregnancy Prevention and Service
Program (APPS) in the communities of Monticello, Liberty, and Fallsburg.
Program projects will include the delivery of a comprehensive life skills/parenting/healthy
lifestyles curriculum to in-school youth, out-of-school youth and pregnant
and
parenting teens, a teen male/teen fathers program with a theatre component,
and community service projects and
internships for high-risk youth. Services will be delivered by a team
of providers from partnership agencies at no cost to local districts.
