More than 2,000 fathers each year participate in the Fatherhood Program, which provides a comprehensive array of services, including GED and ESOL classes, employment assistance, counseling, parenting classes and assistance with child visitation. Additionally, the program arranges social activities for dads and their kids. Thanks to the program, hundreds of fathers have developed the knowledge and skills they need to assume the responsibilities of fatherhood. Contact: Ryan Dodge, DYCD, 917.553.1082
