Analysis of the effectiveness of the Circle of Care Program in increasing life outcomes among teen mothers in Troup County, Georgia

Brace, Andrea Michelle 02 May 2009 (has links)
Troup County, Georgia has been afflicted with elevated teen pregnancy and subsequent teen pregnancy rates. As a result, Circle of Care was developed to reduce the subsequent teen pregnancy rate within Troup County. Circle of Care works with pregnant and parenting teens and their families to enhance their quality of life. A case manager provides information, education and support to enable the teens to stay in school, prevent subsequent teen pregnancies, and prevent child abuse and neglect. This study evaluates the effectiveness of Circle of Care by determining if intensity and duration of program participation have an impact on achieving the desired outcomes for program participants. The results of this research suggest that Circle of Care is reducing subsequent teen pregnancies, increasing educational attainment and decreasing child abuse and neglect among program participants.
