Our campaign Why young mums Young mums&YWCA  The facts   More facts  YoungmumsinWales  Campaign calendar  Campaign material	A major campaign for YWCA   RESPECT young mums is YWCA's major new campaign. We are making young mums a priority because our work with them has shown us the disadvantages and prejudices they face. Our campaign will challenge your attitudes to young mums. Along with the general public, we'll ask politicians, journalists, doctors, teachers and midwives to face up to their words and assumptions about young mums. By joining our campaign, you can add your voice to the call for more RESPECT for young mums and for better chances in life when it comes to issues like education, income, services and childcare. All these organisations support our campaign.    •   Abortion Rights    •   Brook    •   Centrepoint    •   Child Poverty Action Group    •   Daycare Trust    •   Education for Choice    •   End Child Poverty    •   Equal Opportunities Commission    •   Fawcett    •   fpa    •   4 Children    •   Girlguiding UK    •   Maternity Alliance    •   National Union of Students    •   National Youth Agency    •   One Parent Families    •   Secondary Heads' Association    •   YMCA 'The Secondary Heads Association supports this campaign for a better deal for teenage mothers.
