About this Event

The Dad’s Support Circle is a welcoming and empowering space designed specifically for fathers to connect, share experiences, and navigate the complexities of fatherhood, including those involved in court processes.

In this support circle, participants can expect to:



CONNECT AND SHARE:

Fathers are encouraged to share their personal stories, challenges, and successes in a supportive and non-judgmental environment. This sharing fosters a sense of community and mutual understanding among participants.



RECEIVE PEER SUPPORT:

Led by experienced facilitators, the group emphasizes the importance of peer support. Fathers can offer and receive advice, empathy, and encouragement from others who understand the unique challenges of being a dad.



NAVIGATE COURT PROCESSES:

For those involved in legal matters such as custody or child support disputes, the group provides practical guidance and emotional support. Participants can share strategies, resources, and experiences to better understand and manage the court process.



LEARN PARENTING STRATEGIES:

The circle offers tools and techniques for effective parenting, helping fathers improve their relationships with their children. Topics include communication skills, discipline methods, and fostering emotional bonds.



BUILD RESILIENCE:

Through regular meetings, the group helps fathers build resilience and cope with the stresses of parenting and legal challenges. Discussions and activities focus on personal growth, self-care, and maintaining a positive outlook.



ACCESS RESOURCES:

Participants have access to a wealth of resources, including information on legal aid, counseling services, and community programs that can assist them in their parenting journey and court-related issues.



CREATE A SAFE ENVIRONMENT:

Confidentiality and respect are the cornerstones of this group. Facilitators ensure that every member feels safe and supported, allowing fathers to express their concerns and feelings without fear of judgment.

The Fathers’ Support Circle is dedicated to helping dads thrive both in their parenting roles and through any legal challenges they may face. By connecting with other fathers, participants can find strength, guidance, and a renewed sense of purpose in their journey as parents. Join us to gain the support and tools you need to be the best father you can be.

The MENd Together Dads circle sits monthly on the first Tuesday every month between 6.30pm & 8.30pm.

Thanington Resource Centre, Thanington Rd, Canterbury CT1 3XE.

Tea and coffee is available.

There is no charge for the Dad’s circle, but donations to MENd Together are greatly received.
