Our Story

Pretty Passionate Hands Inc. (PPH) was founded in 2015 in Indianapolis, Indiana, in response to the growing need for support systems for teen mothers and fathers navigating parenthood with little to no guidance. What began as a grassroots effort rooted in lived experience has grown into a trusted community-based organization serving young families through mentorship, education, and essential resources. Over the years, PPH has expanded its reach to provide wraparound services that address the real-life barriers teen parents face, including access to childcare, basic needs, financial literacy, and emotional support.

Our Mission

Our mission is to advocate, empower, and provide a nonjudgmental, safe environment for teen parents ages 12–18. Through mentorship, life-skills training, and access to essential resources, we support young families in removing barriers, achieving personal goals, and building stable, healthy futures for themselves and their children.

Our Vision

Our vision is a community where every young parent has access to the support, education, and resources needed to thrive. We are committed to breaking generational cycles, strengthening families, and creating pathways to long-term stability—one family, one child at a time.

Our Value

At Pretty Passionate Hands Inc., we value compassion, empowerment, and community. We believe every young parent deserves access to support, resources, and opportunities that foster personal growth and generational change. We are committed to creating a safe, inclusive, and nonjudgmental environment where teen mothers and fathers are empowered to thrive. Through integrity, empathy, and collaboration, we uplift youth and families, helping them build strong foundations for a brighter future.
