Residents continue their formal education while in the program and the structured environment at the house and the Learning Center allow the birthmothers to learn about budgeting, nutrition, cooking and menu planning, cleaning, parenting and adoption (if applicable), anger management, and other valuable life skills. APFU also provides the opportunity for the residents family or support person, as well as the birthfather (if applicable), to receive guidance and support through family meetings and other materials.
