From Boyhood to Fatherhood: An Interactive Panel Discussion on Boys, Men, Fatherhood and Culture.

Description

Fathers that are present and positively engaged in their child's life leads to many positive outcomes. While many infant and early childhood programs value the role of the father, engaging them into service delivery programs often proves challenging. This seminar will provide an opportunity to reflect on strategies for successful and meaningful engagement of fathers, from diverse backgrounds, in infant and early childhood programs.
