Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Participants are surveyed at program entry and program exit, and changes in participant attitudes are assessed over time.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This study is a descriptive evaluation of the Strong Fathers, Stronger Families program offered to fathers in the Memphis metropolitan area. Program participants are informed about the study and asked to provide consent to participate in the evaluation of the ten-week program. Consenting participants complete surveys at program enrollment and program exit, and survey data is used to determine if program participation is associated with short-term changes in attitudes and behaviors among participants. Changes in parenting, co-parenting, and economic stability outcomes are assessed by comparing survey answers before and after participating in 40 hours of the Blueprint and 24/7 Dad curricula.
