Anyone can father a child but being a dad takes work.
Fathers play a key role and greatly impact the lives of their children.
At Dads Matter, we will guide you into become a dad who is present, trustworthy, and caring.

Class Information
Class engagement will come through group sessions or one-on-one case management.
The group will meet one time per week for two hours for 8 consecutive weeks.
These two-hour classes will consist of one hour devoted to our evidence-based curriculum "ON MY SHOULDERS". The other hour will be devoted to fatherhood discussions.


Outside the Classroom
Outside the classroom one-on-one engagements are offered. We will help fathers address specific needs that may be a barrier that prohibits them from being the father that they want to be.
