Life Choice Programme

The aim of the Life Choice Programme is to ensure that young people are equipped to make informed decisions about pregnancy. The main aim of the Programme is to educate both male and female adolescents by using infant simulators that are designed to help young people understand what it is like t o be the primary caregiver for a baby. We ensure that the young people and parents/guardians participate with the programme with enthusiasm.

The programme allows teenagers to explore the physical, emotional, social and financial consequences of teen parenthood. The programme also aims to help young people to understand important facts about relationships and sexuality. We provide the group with a safe environment to allow space for questions.

The Programme is run with a number of local schools and groups. For more information on the Programme, or to arrange a meeting of the programme, simply contact Orla Grimes at 01-6771930 or email orla.grimes@standrews.ie
