Teen Parent Policy Advisory Board (TPPAB) Coordinator Position in Boston

Massachusetts Alliance on Teen Pregnancy

Boston, MA

The Massachusetts Alliance on Teen Pregnancy advocates statewide and mobilizes communities to prevent teen pregnancy, to increase opportunities for youth and young parents, and to empower young people to make healthy decisions about relationships, sex, parenting and life. Website: www.massteenpregnancy.org

The Alliance is hiring a 15-hour-per-week position to manage our Teen Parent Policy Advisory Board (TPPAB). The TPPAB Coordinator will play the critical role of enhancing our public policy work by more deeply linking the perspectives and experiences of young parents to our public policy planning and advocacy. The Alliance currently has 9 TPPAB members who provide ongoing input into policy activities, participate in a coalition planning committee, and are a part of teen parent panels the Alliance hosts around the state. TPPAB involvement is primarily via email, phone calls, social networking and participation in specific meetings and events. We are eager to create more opportunities to involve TPPAB more deeply in our public policy work and hold regular TPPAB meetings.
