Family  Fathers

 

 

 

Family Fathers is a program for men who want to improve their proficiency in English grammar, speech and writing through study and discussion on issues pertinent to fatherhood and urban family life in the American culture.

FF’s family-room setting helps to make learning the difficulties of another language and culture easier and more attractive. The club uses selected texts on parental issues as the material through which the fathers work to grasp the English language more firmly. FF tackles fundamental issues such as citizenship, leadership and responsibility, development and respect of freedom, the necessity of human formation, the dignity of work, leisure, the building of family life, and holistic education.

Through detailed and practical exploration of FF’s subject matter, immigrant fathers and fathers who want to strengthen their role in the development of their children receive assistance in their struggle to fit into the American culture without losing the richness of their native cultures.
