This guidebook for departments of social services (DSS) is one in a series explaining the law to pregnant and parenting adolescents, their parents, and the professionals who work with them. Knowing what choices are open, caseworkers, supervisors, directors, and attorneys should be better able to help these clients. While the legal issues discussed are relevant to any minor, the book draws attention to the youngest girls, those under fifteen, for two reasons: They present the legal issues most starkly, and they are arguably the neediest.
