Welcome to Fathers Support Hub
At the Los Angeles County Department of Mental Health, we believe that strong fatherhood is essential for the wellbeing of families and communities. Our Fatherhood Program is dedicated to empowering men by providing them with the resources, support, and connections they need to thrive in their parenting journey.
Our mission is to create a nurturing environment where fathers can engage meaningfully with their children and enhance their mental health. We offer a range of services designed to address the unique challenges parents face, including:
- Support Networks: Join our community of parents in support groups that foster connection, understanding, and shared experiences. Here, you’ll find encouragement and camaraderie as you navigate the ups and downs of parenting.
- Educational Workshops: Participate in workshops that cover various topics, from effective parenting techniques to mental health awareness. Our goal is to equip fathers and with knowledge and skills that promote healthy family dynamics.
- Access to Professional Resources: We provide guidance on connecting with mental health professionals who specialize in fatherhood issues, ensuring that parents have access to the support they need. (Click here for resources)
- Self-Care and Wellness Strategies: Discover practical self-care tips to maintain your mental well-being while fulfilling your role as a parent. We believe that caring for yourself is essential to being the best dad you can be.
Join us in our commitment to fostering engaged and supportive father-child relationships. Together, we can create a brighter future for our children and communities. Remember, you’re not alone on this journey — we’re here to support you every step of the way.
