Abstinence Program & Curriculum
MAFTA (Milwaukee Alliance for Teen Abstinence) is a collaboration of several organizations working together to prevent teen pregnancy in Milwaukee County.
Rosalie Manor Community & Family Services is a member of the MAFTA alliance, and is proud to offer our community’s parents and youth a well-rounded, interactive and year-round program that enables youth (aged 12 to 18) to gain control of their lives by preventing teen parenthood through abstinence.
The program is part of Rosalie Manor’s Families United to Prevent Teen Pregnancy (FUPTP) curriculum and is made available to Milwaukee County participants:
- Youth: Several Milwaukee area schools in a daily after-school program
