I'm not sure of any programs. Maybe try for a cheap apartment. ]
I know this isnt much help but I can almost guarantee that with only one of you working, and with him only making 9$ an hour.. you two aren't getting very far on your own. Not only is housing WAY EXPENSIVE, but babies.. uh.. diapers alone are gunna bankrupt the two of you.
You need parental help on this one hun. Theres no way around that. No organization can provide everything to support you, the father, and the baby.
I'd call planned parenthood if I were you, ask them what they think you should do; ask for suggestions for organizations that can help you and your upcoming family.
Goodluck sweety.
I'm 17 and I could not imagine my boyfriend and I having a child right now. We both make $10.50 an hour, and I can barely provide lunch for myself everyday and gas for my car every week.
//From the bottom of my heart, GOODLUCK. You will definately need it.
If you need anything else, or wanna talk to someone, you can message me anytime.

Organizations that I can think of are "Birthright"
"Catholic Charities" or "Luthern Social Services" .
You might also do a search for "Housing assistance" in your state. ]
ok. being teenage parents are gonna be VERY hard.
so you have to be prepared.
my suggestion is to try to live with your parents for now first. because having a kid means more expenses and if you have to pay for the rent as well, you guys prolly can't survive out for long.
does your parents know?
if your parents are not supportive, call the hotline to help unplanned pregnant women. they can give you some shelter i think.
good luck with your baby! ]
hey, good luck wiht your child. i hope all goes well. im not quite familar with places like that. you could try searching google. i think i know of one place that may be of help planned parenthood. cait♥ ]
