Coming October 2025: Fatherhood Facilitator – FORGE, HEART & Ready4Life

Washington, DC (Hybrid / Onsite)

Every child deserves a father who feels confident, supported, and empowered in his role. Yet too often, fathers and young parents in DC face barriers—navigating employment, rebuilding relationships, or breaking cycles of trauma.

As a Fatherhood Facilitator, you’ll step into that gap. You’ll lead evidence-based group and one-on-one sessions that build skills, strengthen family bonds, and help fathers step into their full potential. You’ll be more than a teacher — you’ll be a role model and guide who fosters resilience, confidence, and connection.

What You’ll Do

• Facilitate fatherhood, parenting, and healthy relationship curricula (like 24/7 Dad® or InsideOut Dad®).

• Deliver engaging, trauma-informed group workshops and individual coaching.

• Mentor participants, providing encouragement and consistent follow-up.

• Conduct intakes, assess needs, and connect fathers to employment, counseling, and legal aid.

• Organize father–child engagement events and community workshops.

• Document attendance, progress, and outcomes.

What We’re Looking For

• Required: Bachelor’s degree in Social Work, Counseling, Human Services, Education, or a related field.

• Experience: 1–3 years facilitating curricula in group and/or one-on-one adult-learning settings.

• Strong communication and flexibility, including evenings or weekends.

• Preferred: Lived experience as a father or youth mentor, bilingual fluency, familiarity with fatherhood/parenting programs.

Why It Matters

This isn’t just about teaching skills — it’s about breaking cycles and building legacies. By equipping fathers and young parents, you create ripple effects that extend to children, families, and entire communities.

Expected start date: October 2025 (pending funding award).
