Monday Night Fathers’ Group

 

The purpose is to provide fathers with educational and peer support.  The information that is presented during group comes from the “24/7 Dad” book printed by the National Fatherhood Initiative.  Over the course of these meetings, fathers openly talk about parenting issues and learn ways to effectively manage their children and themselves. 

 

 

Group meets every Monday, except on Holidays, from 5:30 to 7:00.  Occasionally there will be guest speakers.  Meals are provided and children are welcome.  We have a playroom with a certified day care provider to supervise the children.  The class is free.
