Mission Statement
The mission of Midlands Fatherhood Coalition supports fathers so they can be engaged, responsible dads. Midlands Fatherhood Coalition strengthens families through fatherhood. Our program supports and teaches men to acknowledge their responsibility while providing trusted, missing links between fathers and beneficial professionals and resources.
Description
Through individual goal setting, the "One Man Plan", group sessions on topics such as parenting skills, healthy relationships, economic stability and men's health, as well as the Kuder Job Assessment, Job Readiness Bootcamp and employment assistance, MFC helps fathers improve themselves and prepare them to be better fathers to their children. Children with engaged fathers do better in school, are less likely to use drugs and generally make better choices in life.
