A wrap around support programme for teenage parents in Clare is to be evolved into a new service for young parents.

The move by the Teen Parent Support Programme comes in response to the changing needs of at-risk families.

At a recent special event 25 years of the Teen Parent Support Programme was celebrated after it has supported approximately 10,000 women and men, across ten counties.

The celebration event was accompanied by the launch of the new Young Parents Support Programme.
