Report: Teenage Parenting Reference Manual

The Tavistock Institute of Human Relations (TIHR) was commissioned by Community Care Inform, an online reference site targeted at professionals working with children and families, to undertake a series of evidence reviews on teenage pregnancy.

The latest publication produced by the TIHR was guidance for practitioners on supporting teenage parents including: health and wellbeing, access to education and employment, financial support, housing, relationships and parenting. It draws attention to examples of good practice in supporting teenage parents, with a specific focus on vulnerable groups such as looked-after children and the role of teenage fathers.
