Cove, the maternity center of BCHFS, is located in Mount
Vernon. Girls facing a crisis pregnancy find love and care in
a homelike setting. Hope and answers to very difficult problems
are offered along with medical care. Girls electing to parent their
babies participate in parenting classes and training in independent
living skills. Girls electing to place their child for adoption
select the adoptive family. In-home Pregnancy Care is also available
for girls who need additional help but have adequate housing. These
services may be received through the Mt. Vernon location or through
BCHFS regional offices. Residents are encouraged to continue their
education while in care. Junior and senior high age girls attend
public schools. GED, vocational, and college coursework are also
available. |
