As I See it…

The overarching goal of Awesome Dad Aesome Mentoring (A.D.A.M. is to unite fathers by engaging them in their families and children’s lives. The program provides weekly group sessions and a safe environment for fathers to exchange ideas, share stories, and discuss topics related to being dads. New and experienced fathers have a platform to speak to each other, obtain help becoming better fathers, foster healthier relationships with their children and their partners, and develop successful parenting strategies. Fathers learn from others and foster strong friendships with like-minded people. Fathers are given the opportunity to strengthen their bond with their children at scheduled father /child group activities and provided with an array of wraparound services to address barriers that can hinder their ability to be fully present and engaged fathers.

If you would like to participate in any of our meetings, please email us at: getconnected@communitybasedconnections.com

As the CEO of Community-Based Connections, Inc, the vision is to expand the options that changes the odds for children and families in South Florida.

My opinion on fatherhood: fathers are needed it across the world. Fathers have always been the leader of the family, and while times have changed for some, one thing that remains the truth is fathers are necessary for any family. I am not taken away from anyone else and their labor of love for their family, but as a father myself is my responsibility to be a protector, provider, lover, community statesman, and One that guys his family
