This program is run by our Brotherhood Collective member Roosevelt Muhammad. This is a very outstanding and significant program for black male fatherhood and development. We fully support it and would like for you to either be a presenter or connect Roosevelt with someone in your network to serve. Warren Green, Coordinator, The Brotherhood Collective @ Morehouse College Greetings Colleagues This letter is to solicit collaborative support from you or someone on your staff as a guest speaker in our “Fulton County Call to Manhood, Teen DADS Program.” The identified guest speaker would appear in our “Teen DADS Speakers Forum” brochure / Teen DADS Program Curriculum outline. During the course of the program each identified guest speaker may be requested to present their topic on two separate occasions for the two Teen DADS classes totaling 20 participants per class. Please see attached program flyer, guest speaker contract agreement form and presenter information data form referencing the items we will need to coordinate and schedule you into the program. All guest speakers are requested to turn in their forms no later than January 19, 2011 in order for our staff to accomplish the production deadline of our “Teen DADS Speakers Forum” supplemental brochure. Your participation will also help our teen dads realize and take advantage of the valuable resources and services Fulton County has to address their specific needs. Formerly, Call to Manhood operated as three-day retreat for young men in Fulton County to learn valuable lessons about life skills, personal development, and responsibility through workshop speakers. While this model proved successful, we see an increase need for sustained, intensive programmatic initiatives that have a well-defined, measurable impact on the program participants and Fulton County at- large. The Teen DADS Program will meet these Objectives by measuring program outcomes and impacts. The program is designed to target teen fathers 18 years and under in Fulton County. In closing, we would like to work with the appropriate Fulton County Resources and Services that support teen fathers in this program. The Teen DADS program will engage fathers in thorough structured one- stop support program for young fathers. Exclusive among fatherhood programs, The Fulton County Teen DADS Program will use the National Fatherhood Initiative “24/7 DADS” Curriculum that will support young fathers through comprehensive counseling sessions, multi support referrals, career counseling, parenting classes, and referrals for GED programs. Teen DADS will be immersed in a facilitation based model that will emphasize the fundamental theme to support young fathers to ensure family stability. Our program will focus on unique circumstances young fathers face by providing services and assistance to specifically meet their needs. The overall goal is to provide young fathers with opportunities and assistance that help them to develop capabilities enabling them to emotionally nurture and financially support their children. Lastly, I would like to thank you for your time and consideration in this very important matter. Note: Please acknowledge the available dates, time and location on the attached syllabus starting February 15 – April 19, 2011.
