The FATHER Project, founded in 1999 by the City of Minneapolis, is a program of Goodwill-Easter Seals Minnesota that assists parents in overcoming barriers to support their children economically and emotionally. Through employment services, parenting support classes, and family activities, the project aims to strengthen relationships and provide resources for all parents. With a focus on fostering actions to help earnings and responsibility, the FATHER Project has served thousands of fathers in Minnesota, leading to increased parenting skills, educational achievement, and job placement. Supported by a $2 million grant from the Minnesota legislature, the project continues to expand its impact across the state, offering a lens of clarity for fathers to see past mistakes and hardships to the father within.Generated from the website
