Testimonials
The programs encourage participants to become better fathers through exercises that promote the development of the characteristics necessary to becoming a good parent as identified by the participants themselves. It emphasizes the importance of the father as a role model in the active development of their children as opposed to sitting on the sidelines and at best paying a child support obligation. - Re-entry in Ohio
Let me say to you that without you and Fathers & Sons Program I don't think that I would have the knowledge that I now have concerning just how important it is to open up and man up to the father I was. This program has offered me the chance to better myself as a father while showing me that it's never to late to make right actions past. - Veterans of Ohio
Mr. Lykes teches a real good, I mean very good fathers and sons class. He's motivating me more to become that man that I never was to my son. I'm talking to him now because of Mr. Lykes and the class that he has. - Veterans of Ohio
I find this class very interesting and informative. I wasn't going to come to this class at first because all of my children are 30 and older. But I talked to my roomate and he told me that I would like the class and the atmosphere. And I did, I like the class very much. I gain some knowledge and insight on certain situations that came up with myself and my kids. That made my want to do more things and spend more time with my children. It also made me think about my relationship with my kids. I really enjoyed the class. Mr. Lykes made it very interesting. - Veteran Fathers
Fathers and Sons is a very strong program that provides fathers with the basic skills that it takes to be the most influential and essential person in their child's life. This program I feel is fundamentally sound, as the person who is your advocate takes time to listen, teach, stand behind you, and to show you that you are not alone out there in the world when it comes to your situation with your children. - Homeless of Ohio
