Teen Moms Anonymous

Support Groups

Based in South Carolina, we serve the Greenville and Spartanburg areas, providing a safe and nurturing space where young mothers can connect with others who have walked a similar path, find emotional and moral support, and find information and resources to grow into more confident, skilled women and mothers. 

Our support group classes meet once a week for 90 minutes. There is no cost to participate. In our support groups, we provide facilitators who guide the discussion to ensure everyone has an opportunity to share. Topics we explore relate to the eight (8) Dimensions of Health and Wellness.

Testimonial --

Teen Moms Anonymous has profoundly impacted me in so many ways since I joined the July cohort. The founder Dr. Chris's dedication and the resources provided within her organization have been nothing short of inspirational. Throughout the program, I've delved into motherhood, using "The Emotionally Absent Mother" as a guiding tool, which has given me valuable insights into effective parenting. Additionally, the weekly discussions covering a wide range of topics, particularly those related to situations of abuse and parenting, have proven to be an invaluable source of support and empowerment. Through this group, I am looking forward to not only gaining new knowledge but also supporting other teen moms to feel a sense of belonging and solidarity while fostering personal growth and resilience.
