This need is through the Women’s Resource Center. You can read about what they offer for moms here: Earn While You Learn Parenting Classes
  - Women get support from other women but the men have to sit in class with the women. WRC wants to add a fathers’ support group. YHC suggest that we provide the men who can meet with these dads 1/week for 1/hour at the WRC office on Sage Ave. Discussion will include what it takes to be a dad who sticks in there, Godly men characteristics, and fielding any questions they might have about enduring through this pregnancy with their baby’s mamma.
