Help-seeking behavior among select populations of black unmarried adolescent fathers: implications for human service agencies

L E Hendricks et al. Am J Public Health. 1981 Jul.

Abstract

This study was undertaken to provide additional information on what are appropriate roles for agencies in relation to unmarried adolescent fathers. The findings indicate that such appropriate roles for agencies would include the provision of psychosocial counseling, vocational guidance, and parenting education. It was concluded that agency personnel would have to reach out assertively to unmarried adolescent fathers in order to serve them more effectively. (Am J Public Health 1981;71:733-735.)
