ABOUT THE CARE CENTER
The Care Center was founded in 1986 as a GED program for pregnant and parenting teens. Currently, there are five main programs under the umbrella of The Care Center: The Care Center Education Program for Pregnant and Parenting Teens; Bard Microcollege Holyoke; Rowing Strong, Rowing Together; The Clemente Course in the Humanities; and The Teen Resource Project. We strive to create in teens a sense of ownership of their education and future, as well as a sense of hope and possibility. For more information on The Care Center, please visit our website.
