1 Annual Report: Fiscal Year 2013

2 Vision Florence Crittenton Programs of South Carolina values the right of every pregnant young woman to obtain the education, skills, and support needed to have a healthy start in life for both herself and her child. Mission The mission of Florence Crittenton Programs of SC is to provide young pregnant and parenting women comprehensive services to help them become selfsufficient and responsible mothers. Healthy Babies Responsible Mothers

4 Florence Crittenton Programs of South Carolina (FCP) serves at-risk, lowincome pregnant girls and young women, one of the most vulnerable populations in South Carolina. For 115 years, we have provided a safe haven, medical care, counseling, education and social support services to pregnant girls and young women so that they may deliver healthy babies and grow into independent, successful young adults. With our help, each young mother gains a sense of accomplishment and empowerment, and we all benefit as she becomes a self-sufficient, responsible parent and member of the community. Most importantly, the children of these mothers are given a chance to grow up healthy, nurtured, and ready to learn. Our Residential Program provides comprehensive services for pregnant girls and young women who struggle with a myriad of challenges and have a wide variety of risk factors, in addition to being pregnant. Services include residential care, academic education, group and individual counseling, medical care, and social support. Our Family Development Program provides comprehensive home-based support services for up to two years to at-risk, low-income single parents with children ages five and under who live in the Tri-County area of Charleston, Berkeley, and Dorchester counties.
