Charting a Course for Economic Mobility and Responsible Parenting

The Office of Child Support Enforcement (OCSE) forecasts inviting eligible applicants to submit applications developing interventions to educate teens and young adults about the financial, legal, and emotional responsibilities of parenthood. The primary goal of the grant projects is to leverage the child support program’s expertise on the legal and financial responsibilities of parenting to educate and motivate teens and young adults to postpone parenthood until after they have completed their education, started a career, and entered a committed relationship. The target populations for these three-year grant projects are teens and young adults ages 13-25, including unmarried parents and those who have not yet started families.

Even though the details of the grants are not yet known, NOW is the time to PLAN, PICK, and PARTNER!

  1. Make a PLAN

  • Know the population and the community you intend to serve and understand everything you can about them – needs, demographics, etc.

  • In the past this has meant delivering services to teens in areas with higher than the national average teen pregnancy rate.

  • Figure out which settings will offer the best opportunities for your grant activity and why.  What are the rules and regulations of working in those settings? (i.e. if working in a school, which class is most suitable for this instruction?


2. PICK a PROGRAM


  • Explore the intervention(s) you may want to provide that are best suited for your population and setting.

  •  Request free online review copies from Dibble for your team and your partners.


3. Reach out to PARTNERS


  • NOW is the time to build relationships with any partners you feel will to make your grant activity successful.

  • Brainstorm with them how best to deliver the program, any barriers to participation and how to overcome them, who will be instructing, and best ways to recruit and retain your intended population.
