Father support group gets off to a good start

We met tonight with a group of about 8-10 "dads" around a scrumptious meal that Lisa prepared, and a relaxed introduction session to see what dads wanted to talk about. Tony Foreman has graciously offered to led 4 weeks of sessions for dads starting next week, and this was a successful "kick off" just with some casual getting acquainted. A very intriguing mix of situations some dads find themselves in!!! This is something we are doing as part of our Partners in Prevention work to strengthen families and reduce stressors for families, in our wider agency mission of protecting and nurturing children, while strengthening families. Some good resources were shared, and we'll eagerly await the next sessions.
