DADS MATTER PROGRAM
DADS MATTER
DADS MATTER is a responsible fatherhood program designed to support fathers and father figures in resolving barriers that impact their ability to be actively engaged in their children’s lives. DADS MATTER is located in Fayette, Washington and Westmoreland counties in Southwestern Pennsylvania. The DADS MATTER goal is to provide services to 1,060 DADS through September 2020.
We have a research-based national curriculum that identifies topics useful to Dads raising their kids. We also can help with job searching and have training monies available for dads as well.
Father Engagement Sessions include: Fathering & Family Roles Self-Awareness & Caring for Self Attachment & Nurturing Trust Understanding What Your Child Stresses About Workforce Training and On-The-Job Training/Support
DADS MATTER is a program designed to support fathers and father-figures to be more present in their children’s lives.
Who’s Eligible? YOU are! If you are a father or in a fathering role, YOU are able to participate.
