Families in Crisis

Hartford, CT

Fatherhood Initiative

2002 - 2015

To support a caseworker to provide parenting classes and individual and family counseling for fathers ages 16 to 20 committed to the Manson Youth Institution in Cheshire, an adult prison, and to provide aftercare services when they transition back to their communities from prison. The caseworker does home visits with families during the fathers’ incarceration and also links the fathers to community services and accompanies them on visits with their children after they leave the institution. Nearly 90% of the young men complete the program and improve their knowledge and attitudes about parenting.
