New Dads Program To Start

"Caring Dads"

“Caring Dads” is a new and exciting program that will be started by the Worcester County Health Department. It is in itself an intervention program for Dads. It is a National Based and Evidence Based 17 week program.

The Health Department will have an intervention group for Dads in trouble, but we will also have a prevention group for Dads who need support and possible guidance by a nationally trained facilitator.

Dave Baker, who is a National Consultant for Nurturing Fathers and Nurturing, will head up the initiative for the Health Department. He will also facilitate many of the classes.

The topics include but are not limited to: Feelings, Needs, Communication, Anger, Problem Solving, Discipline, Nurturing, and Fathering without Violence.

The Classes will begin in Late Summer or Early Fall.TBA
