Participate. Find out what they need and want from programming and
how to fit their suggestions and ideas into your program. Fathers
benefit from meeting with other dads when they can share common
concerns about their role in parenting and explore ways to become
"good enough" parents. Growing children need positive male role modeling
and to provide additional learning perspectives on life and to
help build trust in adults.
The training welcomes interactive discussion among agencies to build
on creative ideas of servicing dads and their children. You don't want
to miss this lively exchange of new insights and program ideas to enhance
better parenting by fathers.
