Teen Parents is a relational ministry of Youth for Christ/USA that reaches out to pregnant and parenting teenagers and their children.  Our mission is to support, encourage, and equip them with the life, relationship and parenting skills they need.  Our goal is to see these young families become emotionally, mentally, physically, and spiritually healthy. Our purpose is to see them become successful, responsible adults and life-long followers of Jesus Christ.  Teen Parents of Lubbock seeks to involve resources of the community to help young parents build balanced lives.

WHY IS TEEN PARENTS IMPORTANT?

Approximately 1 million teenagers get pregnant in the United States each year.  Teen pregnancy knows no socio-economic, cultural, racial or geographic boundaries.  The Teen Parents ministry provides strategic tools that are effective in reaching this unique population of teens who are often experiencing the challenges of addictions, domestic violence, divorce, peer pressure, and lack of self-respect…and… they are raising children!
