About the Business
The Center on Fathering, located at 1675 Garden of the Gods Road in Colorado Springs, Colorado, is a local government office dedicated to supporting and strengthening families by emphasizing the importance of active father involvement. Children benefit greatly from having both parents actively involved in their lives, and the Center on Fathering offers a variety of classes, support group meetings, and resources to help fathers fulfill their essential role in their children's lives.
The Center provides access to a library of books, articles, videos, and computer resources on parenting topics, and staff are available to assist parents in need of referrals to community resources. The program is open to all families, regardless of their circumstances, and offers support to fathers who may be involved with the Department of Human Services or working through the court system.
One unique aspect of the Center on Fathering is the Father to Father Mentoring program, where experienced dads provide support and encouragement to fathers who may be struggling to stay engaged in their children's lives. The program aims to help fathers overcome challenges and become positive role models for their children.
In addition to mentoring, the Center offers a variety of programs and services, including the Fathers Support Group, the Fathers in Training seminar, and the InsideOut Dad™ program for incarcerated fathers. The ultimate goal of the Center on Fathering is to strengthen and support fathers in their important role as caregivers and role models for their children.
Funding for the Center comes from a combination of sources, including the El Paso County Department of Human Services, private foundations, state and federal grants, and individual donations. The Center on Fathering is committed to helping fathers be actively and positively involved in the care and development of their children, ultimately creating stronger and more resilient families and communities.

Reviews
"I went here to see if anyone could provide guidance on a custody battle I had engaged in. I was told that I had already taken the necessary steps and was making the right moves. The let me know about a ton of resources, all that weren’t really needed in my situation. Finally, they brought up a Fathering Class. I was reluctant at first but I figured I’d feel less alone since I would be around other fathers with similar situations and maybe I’d learn something. 15 weeks later I graduated and I was able to show the courts that I volunteered for this course and let’s just say it didn’t hurt my case. Just as importantly, I’ve learned some things that I’ve started to use and I’ve provided these insights to other parents that I come into contact with and it’s making a difference. This center is not going to have every single answer but I believe they care about fathers that care, so if that’s you, check them out. Gary is a great guy and he’ll answer the phone when he can to help you out how he can."
