South Carolina Center for Fathers and Familes

Get Help

The challenges of being a responsible father sometimes seem too difficult and it can feel like there's no place to turn for help. If you, or someone you know, needs help to better provide for your children and yourself, a fatherhood program can help. We offer:

• Fatherhood Programs - these full-spectrum support programs help with everything from getting a job to effective communication. They help you get the skills you need to be a successful dad. Find one near you.
• Child Support Guidance - we can help you navigate the child support system, even if you are behind.
• Criminal Record Assistance - read our expungement guide to see your options for clearing your record.

How We Help

We believe that children thrive when an engaged, responsible father is active in their lives. Yet, in South Carolina many children live in a father-absent home and the consequences are dire for these children. To address this growing problem, The Center supports six fatherhood programs in 12 communities across the state while promoting father-friendly policies and practices. We have the expertise needed to deliver father-centered programs that enable men to develop the knowledge, confidence and skills to become responsible fathers and co-parents.

Give Help

It is easy to get connected and become involved. We touch the hearts of men. We see great opportunity to help fathers heal broken spirits, learn productive parenting, gain employment, and embrace healthy living. Together, we maximize talent, skills, perspectives, resources, energy, and financial supports to transform father's lives and contributions forever. We personally invite you to become involved.
