Parenting doesn’t come with a handbook and for many dads, it also doesn’t come with enough space to talk honestly about stress, emotions, and expectations. Dad 2 Dads is a supportive class series designed to help fathers strengthen their parenting skills, care for their own mental wellness, and build meaningful connections with their children.
Each session focuses on real-life challenges dads face today, offering practical tools, guided discussion, and a judgment-free environment where growth is encouraged.
