• Learning Opportunities – FEED offers a 12-week Quenching the Father's Thirst training program for fathers interested in forming closer and more meaningful connections with their children.   

• Leadership Opportunities – FEED offers two ways to become role models in the community; (1) limited paid internships and; (2) volunteer experiences through Watch D.O.G.S. (Dads Of Great Students), a national program focused on the prevention of school violence by using the positive influence of fathers and father-figures.

• Social Service Agency Training Opportunities – FEED recognizes that social service agencies across the country focus almost exclusively on mothers and their children. Unfortunately, fathers are often left out of the equation.  We provide city-wide trainings through a curriculum developed by the National Family Preservation Network to social service providers and organizations wishing to enhance their father-friendly practices. 

Eligibility requirements:




Fathers who live in the District

Fathers who have children that live within a 20 mile radius of the District
