Young Dads

You have to take classes to learn how to weld.

You had to take drivers education and pass a test to drive.

You had to take swimming lessons to learn to swim.

You have to practice to make the basketball team.

You love things that you do well!

Doesn't your child deserve a father that learns and practices and loves to be a good father?

Young Dad's is a program for the young father of a baby born to a teenage mother. The impact of the birth of a baby to a teenager is felt by the teen mom, but also the father of the baby. That young man's life is changed forever. Whether he is 15 or 22, he is a father and has responsibilities to the child, even if the relationship with the mother has ended.

The Young Dad's program believes every young father needs to know that he and his child were created with value and worth, and that God wants his life to count.

Relationship classes and parenting classes are available free to any young dad. Additionally, Earn While You Learn sessions to earn diapers and other items necessary for babies are available to young dads ages 15-19.
