In this study, a service provider to teenage adolescents who are pregnant, Salem Teen Mother's Program, was examined in depth to assess the components of their program which assist with working toward completion of the tasks. Additionally, we looked at two cohorts of girls. Those that accepted and ~hose that rejected the offered services at the Teen Mother's Progr~m and developed a profile on each girl consisting of the following traits: age, marital status, religious preference, employment status, and race; the purpose being, to compare the two groups to see if there are reasons why they accept or reject participation in the program. Following completion of the profile, we then looked at the elements of the Teen Mother's Program and how they generally address the tasks. The review of the literature examines why teens get pregnant, statistics on pregnancy, an explanation of how various program~ have helped, and the medical risks associated with teenage pregnancy. A description of the Salem Teen Mother's Program is presented. vi ~>' ·--· -·----·<• ·--·_, ----_,__._--
