    ACOE Programs Serving Pregnant and Parenting Teens

    ACOE runs a school program for teen parents at two separate sites, in Oakland and Hayward. Each location includes on-site child care to support students as they strive to complete their high school graduation requirements. Any pregnant and/or parenting student in Alameda County is eligible to enroll. Students whose home district is not able to provide a parenting program may attend a county school.

    Students may be identified by parents, counselors, nurses, doctors, other students, and local agencies.  Referrals for students under 18 can be made by their district of residence
