Father Involvement Program

Our A.I.M. Group, better known as Active Involvement for Men was developed to encourage men to become more involved in the lives of children.  The objectives of the program are to provide fathers/male figures with the skills necessary to become more engaged with their child/ren, develop and enhance both the father/male figures literacy skills thus building their child/rens literacy comprehension at the same time. 

Events to provide fathers/male figures with 'just dad time' as well as 'dad and child time' are planned during the year.  Input from the dads/male figures is truly appreciated because activities are designed based on the input received - we want to plan events based on the interests of the dads/male figures. 
 
We look forward to working with each dad/male figure and making those connections that will last a lifetime.....it's important to your child, to your family and to build a stronger community.
