The Alliance for Families & Children welcomes and encourages the participation of fathers in ALL of our programs.
As funding allows, we can offer special programs that are "Just for Dads," including parenting education and support groups. Please contact Assistant Director of Prevention Paul Baldwin to find out about current offerings: paulb@alliancecva.org or (434)845-5944, ext. 263.
