About Jessie’s Centre
Liberty Prep is proud to support Jessie’s: The June Callwood Centre for Young Women this holiday season.
Becoming a parent is never easy. It’s particularly challenging when you are still in high school. Without a community of support, young women are at a greater risk of anxiety, depression, and even suicide.
Jessie’s changes the game for pregnant and parenting young women ages 13-21. With the support of their counsellor, young women prepare a plan for a healthy pregnancy, and a stable, caring home for their little one. Then, we rally behind them as they follow their plan, with an on-site high school, free childcare, food and housing support, an on site health clinic, and comprehensive parenting education resources. Jessie’s has supported more than13,000 young women over the last 40 years to become competent, caring parents and active members of their community in a space that seeks to be anti-oppressive, feminist and pro-choice.
Your donation supports young women so that they reach their potential and make generational change for their children.
