The Father Center of New Jersey offers fathers the emotional, social, and economic resources to improve their lives and those of their children.

We believe that when fathers are empowered to be good parents, the entire community benefits.

When Eberle was first introduced to The Father Center of New Jersey, he faced challenges that made his goals seem out of reach. With the guidance of a dedicated staff and a structured curriculum in the Drive2Independence program, he embarked on a journey to secure his driver’s permit. The impact was immediate.

Through Drive2Independence, Eberle not only acquired the practical skills necessary for driving but also nurtured a newfound sense of confidence and optimism about his future. The program’s comprehensive approach ensured that he was well-prepared for the challenges of the road.

“The Father Center of New Jersey has been a big support for me,” he shared, highlighting how the encouragement and resources provided by the staff played a crucial role in his success.

This accomplishment has been more than just obtaining a permit; it has been a pivotal step towards a brighter future. Eberle is now more motivated than ever to pursue his goals, armed with the belief that he can overcome obstacles with determination and support.

High school students in our Developing Young Men Young Leaders program (DYMYL) facilitated their last three sessions. The workshop series covered developing healthy relationships, pregnancy prevention, and the consequences of unplanned fatherhood.

The final session focused on the stages of puberty, contraceptive use, and making responsible choices.

The facilitators provided factual information as they led robust discussions on each of the topics. The students also learned about Planned Parenthood and how to access their services and enrichment programs.

We want to take a moment to express our sincere gratitude to People & Stories for their incredible program. Our last session was a resounding success, filled with joy, inspiration, and community spirit.

A special shout-out goes to Teresa, whose dedication and warmth truly made a difference. Her storytelling not only captivated our participants but also created a supportive environment where everyone felt valued and encouraged. Teresa’s ability to connect with each individual helped foster a sense of belonging, making the session even more memorable.

This program has been a wonderful opportunity for our participants to engage, learn, and grow. We appreciate the commitment and passion that People & Stories brings to their mission, enriching our community in so many ways.

A big thank you to Ryan from Medina Health Center for joining us at The Father Center and delivering an excellent, informative presentation on the importance of primary care and maintaining good health. Our participants enjoyed the session, and many took advantage of the opportunity to sign up for primary care services—a meaningful step toward healthier families and stronger communities.

We appreciate Medina Health Center’s partnership and Ryan’s clear, practical guidance. We’re looking forward to more collaborations that connect our community to the care they need.

We extend our heartfelt thanks to Capital Health for inviting The Father Center to their Community Baby Shower. The event brought together families, community partners, and service providers in a warm, celebratory setting and gave us a valuable opportunity to connect directly with new and expectant parents.

Many men stopped by our table to ask practical questions about parenting, reentry, employment supports, and navigating services for their families. These honest, hopeful, and action‑oriented conversations reinforced how important community events are for reaching men who may not otherwise seek out support.

We appreciate Capital Health’s thoughtful planning and inclusive approach that made fathers feel welcome and respected. Events like this expand access, reduce stigma, and create pathways for families to strengthen their stability and well‑being.

Thank you to the Capital Health team, the volunteers, and every family who stopped to speak with us. We look forward to continuing this partnership and turning these conversations into concrete support and outcomes for fathers and their families.
