SUMMARY:Family Connections: Father to Father
DESCRIPTION:National Family Support Technical Assistance Center \nJoin the National Family Support TAC twice in June for two events focused on fathers today who may face challenges as a parent or caregivers. You’ll meet two remarkable fathers providing significant support\, inspiration\, and resources for dads\, grandfathers\, caregivers\, and father role models across the country. \nConnection is especially critical for fathers and caregivers for a child of any age experiencing mental health and/or substance use\, behavioral health issues\, special needs\, or many other challenges. It can be isolating\, and both events are a place for every dad\, parent\, or caregiver in need of connection with others. \nWhether you are a dad\, grandfather\, caregiver\, or someone who simply wants to support a dad\, everyone is welcome. \n“Father to Father” June 7th – 8:00pm ET | 7:00pm CT | 5:00pm PT \nGeorge Fleming and Nelson Rascon return on June 7th for “Father to Father\,” an open conversation led by two fathers and leaders in the movement to empower other fathers through education\, peer support\, and advocacy. For any father or caregiver who wondered if they are the “only one going through this\,” it’s designed for any dad to connect Father to Father. \nTopics may include: \n\nFather Friendly Engagement\nExpanding Male Peer Support\nCreating Father-Friendly Environments\nSupport for Justice-involved Fathers\nFathers with Mental Health and/or Substance Use Lived Experience\nReducing Barriers for Fathers\nPrioritizing Child Wellness\nEveryone Thrives\n\nLEARNING OBJECTIVES: \n\nUnderstand the difference between “being” a father and the concept of fathering and fatherhood.\nLearn how to find support for those who lacked role models growing up\, were unable to parent their children\, or how to connect with other fathers.\nAcceptance factor: Fathers and caregivers will better understand how to strengthen the role of fathers in raising children throughout their lifespan.\n\nRegister Here >>
