Following National Parents’ Day, we want to highlight Dads Corps, a pioneering program empowering fathers across San Diego. Dads Corps supports fathers through parenting challenges with skill-building classes, safe spaces for conversation, case manager guidance, and legal and financial resources. In a recent interview, one father shared, “Dads Corps taught me to keep moving forward and ask for help. It’s a sign of strength.” Another said, “Dads Corps inspires you to be better for your kids despite challenges.” To all the pillars of our families, Happy National Parents Day! Your love and guidance shape our lives in ways words can’t express. Thank you for everything. Learn more about Dads Corps: https://lnkd.in/epScRDZz
