Planned Parenthood
of
the Rocky Mountains
(PPNM) |
Albuquerque, New
Mexico / $25,000 |
|
New Mexico’s teen pregnancy rate
is currently the highest in the
nation. Teen pregnancy puts
teens and their children at
higher risk for poverty, high
school dropout, and health
problems, according to the
National Campaign to Prevent
Teen and Unplanned Pregnancy. To
qualify for a well-paying job in
the increasingly competitive
marketplace, it is more
important than ever for teens to
graduate from high school. To
combat these startling
statistics, PPNM designed the
Adolescent Pregnancy Prevention
Program, an education program
that gives New Mexico’s teens
the skills and information they
need to avoid teen pregnancy. |

absence and alienation in Santa
Fe which mirrors the nation,
where more than one of every
three children lives absent from

in becoming more fulfilled as
fathers by learning how to play
and spend rewarding time with
their child. Reading aloud,
dreaming up and telling stories,

simple, creative, low or no-cost
activities dads will experience
and be encouraged to continue at

Santa Fe Performing Arts
(SFPA) |
Santa Fe, New
Mexico / $10,000 |

SFPA’s programs provide children
of all ages with a vehicle for
the development of self-esteem.
When a child is aware of their
own worth, it keeps them from
endangering themselves with
drugs or gang involvement.
Performing arts also helps
children build
communication and
problem-solving skills to deal
with other issues such as
bullying, teen
suicide and challenges facing
LGBTQ youth. The goal of SFPA is
to help kids at risk succeed and
provide an opportunity for safe,
diverse, and creative
educational programs that
connect
children and youth with caring
adults during non-school hours. |
