Project Fatherhood (SM): Event Details: Project Fatherhood Five-Day Training: Men in Relationships Group (MIRG) Model

Project Fatherhood Five-Day Training: Men in Relationships Group (MIRG) Model

From September 12-16, 2016, Children’s Institute, Inc. (CII) will be hosting Project Fatherhood’s next Five-Day Training in the “Men in Relationships Group” (MIRG) Model.

About the MIRG Model:
Research has shown that father presence reduces many negative outcomes for at risk children. At CII, we sought to address the problem of father absence by developing a comprehensive fatherhood program. This program has been validated by working with fathers of children who are at risk or have been in the system due to abuse and neglect. To date, this model has been applied in more than 100 community and faith based organizations.

Who Should Attend:
Project Fatherhood is soliciting applications from mental health professionals that would like to be trained in our intervention treatment model. The preference is to receive applications from individuals who are capable of implementing a program in their agency. However, individual consideration will be made among applicants who have experience in the field and would like to know the model to help them reach out to fathers and significant others of at risk children. Due to federal funding there is no cost to the participants of this training.
