Fatherhood Program

     Expectant and new Dads have unique questions and concerns.  They need someone to talk to in order to prepare for the journey ahead.  Are you the mentor who will help them on their way?

     Mentors meet with clients during their initial visit to the center and follow-up with them along the way as they prepare for their new baby. We hope to have men co-teaching our maternity and parenting classes.

     We offer a one-time session for couples to discuss mother's and father's role.  Just for Dads is a 12-part series, one class per month, using the Doctor Dad curriculum from National Fatherhood Initiative.  Dads are prepared with essential child health and safety information and equipped to provide, protect and be involved.

Please submit a completed volunteer application by e-mail to This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it .  

Training is also required to prepare for this role. 

The difference a dad makes...
