The Las Claras program has continued its mission of supporting teenage mothers, focusing on four key pillars: psychosocial support, health, education, and technological training. Throughout the year, four groups of young mothers joined the program, each undergoing the Emotional Stability Phase, which provides tools to improve emotional regulation, stress management, and the development of personal and social skills.

Group Participation

  • Group 11 started in March 2023.
  • Group 12 joined in late September 2023.
  • Group 13 began in March 2024 with 12 teenage mothers; six dropped out due to economic reasons and were replaced.
  • Group 14 entered in October 2024 with 15 teenage mothers, currently in the first phase.

Areas of Intervention

  1. Psychosocial Support

    • Over 1,542 hours of individual counseling and group therapy were provided by psychologists and social workers.
    • Workshops on citizen coexistence, positive parenting, sexual education, values, and social skills were conducted.
  2. Health

    • Continued medical, gynecological, and pediatric care for participants and their children.
    • Promotion of contraceptive use13 teenage mothers opted for Implanon, while the rest used injectable methods.
  3. Education

    • 20 teenage mothers graduated with a high school diploma in commerce and a technical certificate in administrative assistance.
    • 9 of them are currently employed in formal jobs.
    • Additional English courses and computer skills training were provided.
  4. Technological and Job Training

    • Office Software Course for 20 teenage mothers from Groups 11 and 12.
    • Workshops on financial education, professional image, customer service, job interviews, and resume writing.
    • Literacy reinforcement, creative writing, and theater workshops, culminating in a theatrical performance based on their life experiences.
    • Partnership with GBM for a Technical Degree in Systems, with 11 participants (7 completed theoretical training and will begin internships in 2025).

Impact on Early Childhood

  • The children of teenage mothers join an early stimulation program, receiving over 1,000 hours of personalized sessions to support their psychomotor, linguistic, and socio-emotional development.

Violence Prevention

  • Workshops on violence prevention, rights awareness, and healthy relationships were conducted to empower teenage mothers and foster a culture of respect and equity.

Conclusion

The Las Claras program has achieved significant progress in the personal, educational, and professional development of its teenage mother participants. Through strategic partnerships and training focused on economic independence, the program continues to strengthen its pillars, offering opportunities that positively impact their lives and those of their children.
