Daddy & Me Group Facilitator
The Daddy and Me program is a drop-in program for dads and male caregivers to connect with other
dads, to play and share a meal with their children, and gain access to resources specifically
geared towards dads, in a fun and safe environment.
The Group Facilitator will lead group sessions for the Daddy and Me responsible fatherhood program,
which supports fathers and male caregivers in strengthening their relationships with their children
and becoming more engaged, confident, and capable parents. Through a series of interactive, father-
centered workshops, the facilitator will guide participants in exploring key topics such as
parenting skills, child development, communication, co-parenting, and emotional expression.
The ideal candidate will be a skilled communicator and group leader who can create a safe,
respectful, and inclusive environment where participants feel heard, supported, and empowered to
grow in their roles as fathers.
