The Fatherhood Program acknowledges the unique challenges faced by black fathers in the Monroe County and seeks to address them through a range of services. These may include educational workshops that focus on topics such as positive parenting techniques, effective communication, and building healthy relationships with their children.

Furthermore, the program may provide mentorship opportunities, connecting black fathers with experienced mentors who can offer guidance, encouragement, and support based on their own personal experiences. This mentorship component helps create a sense of community and fosters positive role modeling for fathers who may not have had access to such resources previously.
In addition to these direct services, the fatherhood program may also collaborate with community organizations, schools, and local businesses to create opportunities for black fathers to actively engage in their children's lives. This could involve organizing family events, promoting father-child bonding activities, or facilitating discussions on important topics related to fatherhood and parenting within the inner city context.
Ultimately, the fatherhood program for black fathers in the inner city seeks to empower and uplift fathers, recognizing their vital role in the lives of their children and the positive impact they can have on their families and communities. By providing targeted support and resources, this program aims to help black fathers navigate the unique challenges they may face and foster stronger bonds with their children.
