Project Title: NourishCare Initiative
Project Description:

The NourishCare Initiative by Stepping Stone Academy Foundation is a compassionate and comprehensive effort to address the pressing challenges faced by pregnant and teen mothers in our community. Our hearts are dedicated to identifying and alleviating the systemic issues affecting this vulnerable population, including the utilization of state funds by pregnant teenage girls, the lack of intentional, coordinated, full-scope resources to prevent/mitigate poverty, and the intersection of teenage pregnancies with the risk of dropping out, among other barriers created by teenage pregnancy.
At Stepping Stone Academy Foundation, we firmly believe that every mother deserves an opportunity to overcome these obstacles and thrive. Our commitment extends beyond immediate needs, and we strive to provide a holistic support system through our non-profit organization. NourishCare is not just about addressing hunger; it’s about fostering a brighter future for pregnant and teen mothers, breaking the cycle of challenges they face.
Join us in making a difference in these statistics and be a part of creating a positive change. Together, we can build a community where pregnant and teen mothers receive the support they need, empowering them to navigate the journey from Pregnancy to Parenthood and Childhood to Adulthood with confidence and resilience.
