The Colorado Fatherhood Program (CFP) serves fathers who are 18 and older, with children up to 24 years old. Through engaging workshops, program staff help fathers build healthy parent-child relationships, increase economic stability and build social connections. Program recipients also receive assistance accessing housing, employment, and basic needs.

“The work of the seven sites selected will support fathers in the vital role they play for children and families,” said Mary Alice Cohen, director of the former Office of Early Childhood. “We are very excited to see grantees make a positive impact in their communities.”

Also, Colorado has a fatherhood network referred to as the Colorado Fatherhood Initiative which works to build a robust continuum of supports that promote a father's role in the family, build accountability measures for fathers, and provides opportunities for mentorships that model responsible fathering.
