Teen moms fight gov's program cuts

The government is cutting budgets everywhere and one of the areas they are trying to cut funding from are pre and post natal programs for teen moms. The teen moms are protesting because a lot of the programs that helped them when they were pregnant would suffer and they know how necessary and helpful they are. One of the ones they were especially upset about is called Square One that provides parenting skills and supports them in continuing their education and careers. They don't want programs like Square One to be cut because the program teaches the mothers how to be independent and not reliant on government help in the long run.
