DR. DAD® WORKSHOPS

Doctor Dad is an interactive online course packed with information that has immediate practical applications for new dads. In each lesson, you’ll learn things like how to care for a pregnant partner, how to calm a crying baby, the importance of skin-to-skin contact, child nutrition, how to take a temperature, and gun safety. Not only will we walk you through the practical hands-on skills of being a dad, but you will also go in-depth on topics like compassion, suffering, anger, and patience through a brief devotional at the end of each step. This course is a great first step in learning more about how to care for your child and pregnant partner and will equip you to embrace fatherhood with confidence!

24-7 Dad is a fatherhood program used by hundreds of organizations across the nation to improve the knowledge, behavior, and skills of dads of all races, religions, and demographics. The program is built on the basis that fathers can be nurturers, and nurturing is a learned skill for men. Throughout the program, men examine their own fatherhood history, learn the 5 characteristics of a 24-7 Dad, and other important behaviors such as working with mom and proper child discipline to help them be the best dads they can be.

This course is available Monday to Friday during regular business hours. The course can be conducted in individual sessions or in group format.

Completion of Dr. Dad is a pre-requisite for this course.
