At Child Inc, we believe that fathers play a vital role in the healthy development of their children and in creating stable, nurturing family environments. That’s why we are thrilled to introduce our new Father Engagement Program, designed to empower dads with the tools, resources, and support they need to be more actively involved in their children’s lives.
About the 8 Week Program Launching September 24, 2024
Our Father Engagement Program is centered around the nationally recognized 24:7 Dad® Curriculum, which helps fathers strengthen their parenting skills, improve communication, and build healthy relationships with their children and families. The curriculum covers key topics such as child development, discipline, work-life balance, and the importance of emotional connection. Fathers will also gain practical strategies for managing stress and improving overall well-being.
The 24:7 Dad curriculum is a comprehensive fatherhood program developed by the National Fatherhood Initiative (NFI). It is designed to help fathers become more involved, responsible, and committed to their children. The program is widely used by organizations that work with fathers to enhance their parenting skills, strengthen their relationships with their children, and improve their overall well-being.
Key Features of the 24:7 Dad Curriculum:
- Focus on Fatherhood: The curriculum covers topics like fathering skills, communication, discipline, and child development, emphasizing the unique role fathers play in their children’s lives.
- Holistic Approach: It addresses various aspects of a father’s life, including self-care, relationships, and work-life balance, to ensure that fathers are well-rounded and capable of providing a stable environment for their children.
- Cultural Sensitivity: The program is designed to be adaptable to different cultural contexts, ensuring that it resonates with fathers from diverse backgrounds.
- Evidence-Based: The curriculum is grounded in research and has been shown to positively impact fathers’ involvement and relationships with their children.
- Interactive Learning: The curriculum includes activities, discussions, and exercises that encourage active participation and personal reflection among fathers.
This program is more than just learning – it’s about creating a community of dads who support one another in their parenting journey.
