We are very excited about the launch of our new website! Now we will be able to update you with everything that is happening at this end as it comes to me!

My name is Rebeccah and I am the project officer of Talking Realities Sydney. Our aim with this program is to educate teens/adolescents with the facts of life as a young parent so that they can make informed health decisions. I truly believe that we are making a difference and are helping young people gain an insight to the reality of being a young parent thus giving them information needed to make these life long decisions.

I have some fantastic young mums on board who help me run this program and share their stories to young people as peer educators. I believe the program is successful because students are hearing this information from young parents themselves and can relate more to people closer in age. I couldn't run this program without them and i am forever grateful for their works in this area.
