Handbook: Supporting Pregnant Students in School
Purpose
Provide practical guidance for educators, administrators, school staff, and peers to support pregnant and parenting students so they can continue their education, maintain health, and thrive.
The curriculum is practical and tender. How to convert fear into plan: a binder of numbers—healthcare, shelters, legal aid—kept within reach. How to make a bed that feels like a harbor: soft light, an anchor of routine, someone who will stay when the contractions come. How to make space for your partner or to build a village when there is no partner: community, paid or grown, that offers childcare, rides, and honest meals. support pregnancy school
