Building an Ethical Organization
The organization of Young Teen Moms is new to the community and wants to reach out and provide a safe place for young moms. I take my new position as the director of the organization very seriously and want to share my input and values of what I think the organization can benefit from. I also would appreciate receiving feedback from every employee on new policies and how to reach out to the community. The Young Teen Moms organization is a program that educates and provides young teen moms with the life tools to provide a healthy lifestyle. The organization gives free parenting classes, free baby cloths, meal planning, and counseling. Counseling services should be open to the father of the baby and also the parents of the teens. If feelings and emotions are not addressed and resolved that can only lead into anger and could be taken out on the child in the future. One of the major concerns is education and finishing school even after the baby is born and that is something we work with the school district closely. Outside of that particular program we also educate on how to prevent to pregnancy and of that does occur what choices a teen mom has in that type of situation. As an organization we decided not to support abortion options but will provide the information when requested and referrals of who they can contact. The organization is a nonprofit agency that puts our funding into classes, counseling and tools for the mothers in need. One thing we should start to pay attention to is the fathers of the babies that are born into the world. There is a lack of guidance that the community offered expected fathers to be and that should be something we address and become part of our process in reaching out. Ignoring an issue that might happen can only cause a snowball effect throughout a community. Our mission statement shows
