Iron Sharpens Iron
Currently Accepting Participants!
The inception of the Iron Sharpens Iron FatherHOOD group was for gang-affiliated fathers. But we want to invite all fathers of the BIPOC community to get together in a safe space and talk about their different experiences, How they’ve overcome adversities, Work/Home life balance, Mending damaged relationships, Resource sharing, and Healthy Disciplinary Strategies. We will also offer once-a-quarter Father-child outings to strengthen those relationships.
