Fathers On A Mission is one of the only nonprofit organizations that cater to empowering men to become better father figures within their community. We connect Fathers with workplace opportunities, community resources, and opportunities to build relationships.
Reach one, teach one. We can't do this alone.
Embracing the opportunity at the earliest opportunity.
We offer Fatherhood Meetings and Programs for all fathers in Metropolitan Baton Rouge and beyond.
Fatherhood Meetings is a monthly meeting that provides an open dialogue for fathers and father figures to discuss their experiences and challenges in fatherhood. Sessions aim to connect fathers, build a supportive network, and promote growth as individuals and members of their communities. The program offers a supportive environment, covering topics such as motivation and hindrances, and provides resources, support, and guidance to help fathers be successful.
