Offers a combination of weekly support groups and parenting classes designed to strengthen the role of fathers and male caregivers, promote positive parenting, and prevent child abuse and neglect.

The 12-week support group series covers topics such as identity and purpose, self-care, and overcoming personal barriers, with options for in-person or virtual participation.

Parenting classes consist of an 8-session series focused on self-worth, child development, effective discipline, and creating safe, nurturing home environments.

All participants complete a comprehensive intake, and program staff provide referrals to community resources and case management as needed. Upon successful completion, participants in both services receive a certificate of completion.
