Interventions

  • Treatment Intervention: Responsible Parenting, Relationships, and Employment Services — BEHAVIORAL
    The Intervention group will be assigned a Case Manager and placed in the next available On My Shoulders (OMS) curriculum that offers strategies to help individuals develop a strong and healthy self in the service of making current and/or future relationships of all forms (parent-child, romantic, family, work) successful and satisfying. This curriculum is intended to equip men (and, where applicable, women) with the skills they need to build and nurture healthy relationships. This curriculum should help participants improve family functioning. Additionally, Transforming Impossible into Possible (TIP) financial literacy curriculum will be utilized to help participants increase job retention for those currently employed, improve wages through additional educational and training opportunities, and learn skills to better manage family finances. This curriculum should help participants increase economic stability and mobility.

Study Details

The goals of the program are to help struggling fathers and father figures improve the parent-child relationship, sustain healthy marriages and relationships (and help those who are single identify ways to enter into safe and supportive relationships that may ultimately lead to marriage), and identify and support fathers in their economic stability and employment objectives. These outcomes will be achieved through a series of workshops addressing responsible parenting and marriage and relationships as well as a complement of employment services and comprehensive case management. Additional services needed by participants will be identified and provided either through wraparound programming provided by JFCS or through collaborative agreements with local partner agencies. Additionally, Ignite will incorporate a comprehensive employment program combining both job and career advancement.
