Commission on Fatherhood Announces Support to Fathers in 23 Ohio Counties

The commission on Fatherhood has announced program supports for fathers across 23 Ohio Counties. The Fatherhood Programs funded through OCF demonstrate innovative and effective approaches to 1) building the parenting skills of fathers, 2) providing employment-related services to low-income, noncustodial fathers, 3) preventing premature fatherhood, 4) providing services to fathers who are inmates or who have just been released from state or federal correctional facilities or other detention facilities, 5) reconciling fathers with their families, and 6) increasing public awareness of the critical role that fathers play.

OCF Also provides training and workshops to build organizations’ capacity to serve fathers and families.

Programs and services are available in the following counties reflected on the program map, including in Adams, Butler, Clark, Columbiana, Delaware, Erie, Fairfield, Franklin, Hamilton, Lake, Lorain, Lucas, Marion, Montgomery, Morgan, Muskingum, Perry, Richland, Scioto, Stark, Summit, Union, and Warren Counties.
