Hope for Teenage Mothers

Ruth Muthoni (not her real name) told HTM she was kicked out of  her public high school at the Mukuru slums when she became pregnant at the age of 16.

Although she will be able to complete her secondary education in a special school for teenage mothers at Reuben Centre, created with Hope for Teenage Mothers support next year that is not the norm for pregnant drop-outs in Kenya’s country of 38 million, most of whom never make it back to school.
