Oak Street. The first step to working with fathers is changing the climate, so many time fathers’ parenting programs hinge on what the father isn’t doing as opposed to highlighting what he is doing. Healthy, positive working relationships don’t develop unless fathers trust the process. The Father’s Day Cookout is an opportunity to engage fathers to begin to establish positive relationships to build on later.
