The Delaware Adolescent Program, Inc. (DAPI) was founded in 1968 in New Castle County in order to afford pregnant teenagers a means by which to continue their education and receive pre-natal care.
The program, which became a national model, provided the strong support needed when students were unofficially asked to leave their home schools when they became pregnant. The program quickly expanded across the state and serves hundreds of girls each year in our New Castle, Kent and Sussex county centers.
The Delaware Adolescent Program, Inc. is the only statewide comprehensive school based program serving pregnant and parenting teens and their families. DAPI serves the community with the following programs: Academic Instruction, Social Services, Child Care, On site therapeutic counseling and Health Services.
