The purpose of the story-gathering is to foster a sense of community among the Partners and Teen Parents and instill a sense of pride about having their work printed and shared, as well as to acknowledge their progress.

We also have a number of girls with an interest in graphic arts, and so expanding the project in that direction is a possibility. This internship would be perfect for someone who is interested in engaging women or teen parents personally and creatively. The group exchange will also help increase resources for participants.
