A COMPASSIONATE, TRAUMA-INFORMED COURSE TO HELP MEN OVERCOME THE BARRIERS THAT KEEP THEM FROM BEING THE BEST FATHERS THEY CAN BE
Fathers have different needs and challenges with parenting than mothers do. Amazing Dads! helps men create a vision of the fathers they want to be and provides them with the awareness, tools, and confidence to achieve that vision. These 18 two-hour facilitated lessons address male socialization, childhood and adolescent trauma, and relational struggles that often create disconnection between fathers and their children. Each session includes activities, exercises, and experiential opportunities that encourage fathers to engage with the content and practice their new skills. Uniquely, Amazing Dads! explores a breadth of topics, never shying away from difficult subjects--and offers detailed guidance on creating a safe space for participants and facilitators alike.
