Is your organisation interested in developing work with fathers?

Do you ask yourself questions such as:
Where do we start?
What is possible?
Who can help us?
What has been tried in other places?

... Then "Kick Start" might help you!!!

Kick Start is an innovative programme which is funded by the Family Policy Unit (within DHSSPS) and coordinated by The Men's Project.

Since 2005, it has offered a seven month package of training, support, mentoring, reflection and practical action to organisations that are trying to, or wishing to, engage with fathers in Northern Ireland. The aim of the programme is to increase both the quantity and quality of dedicated work with fathers, and to build a robust infrastructure in this area.

Reports on each year of the programme are available for free downloading in Portable Document Format (PDF). Please click on the relevant link below ...
