Mission Statement
Employing teenage parents to deliver work in schools helping pupils to become resilient to abusieve behaviour and preventing early parenthood
About This Cause
Straight Talking supports disadvantaged young parents back into the world of education and employment whilst working to reduce the high rates of teenage pregnancy in the UK. Socially excluded teenage mothers and young fathers in deprived areas are employed and trained to present the realities and implications of pregnancy and parenting to 13-17 year olds in schools. Additionally, our peer education model is an ideal method of preventing Child Sexual Exploitation and pupils learn to identify abusive behaviour e.g. sexting, grooming and domestic abuse. Early parenthood is commonly synonymous with abuse and our young parents confidently and successfully deliver these modules which are welcomed by schools.
