YOUTH MUM'S SUPPORT

DLTC International supports young mothers either one to one or in a group setting depending on the individual needs of the young/single mother.

The support  is available until the young and single mother is ready to take the next steps in her life. It aims to give single and young mothers the support needed to parent whilst navigating complex lifestyle and relationship issues thus empowering mothers to thrive as parents, and as individuals.

The support is available to young/expectant mums up to the age of 25 years old who may lack confidence to reach out and access generic support networks.
