Attorney Cost Assistance (under development)
The Attorney Cost Assistance program will seek and obtain grants to subsidize attorney costs in custody cases.  In addition Fathers, Inc. will identify a network of attorneys that will provide pro bono or reduced fee services (i.e. attorney retainer, consultation, and/or representation fees). Subsidy will be based on a sliding fee scale based on income.  The goal of the program will be to increase the effective representation of fathers in custody cases. Our expectation is that in providing this service, another barrier to paternal parental involvement will be removed.

Mentorship and Support Group
Fathers, Inc. will establish a network of area fathers to provide mentoring to young fathers.  We will also offer group mentorship, training, and support groups utilizing area fathers.

Fatherhood Training Classes, Seminars and Summits
Fathers, Inc will sponsor training for individuals and organizations on topics of fatherhood.  The organization will also host seminars and summits to provide forums for networking and resource identification. These training classes will be in support of other Fathers Inc. programs, including mentorship and mediation.

Father/Mother custody and support mediation (under development)
Fathers, Inc. will create collaborations with Family Court, Social Services, and other organizations to provide mediation between fathers and mothers prior to entering the family court system.

Annual Father of the Year Award and Banquet
(under development)
Fathers, Inc. will honor one father in the Capital Region by recognizing his commitment to family and community.  Several other awards will also be given to fathers who excel in particular areas.  The Banquet will serve as a hallmark fundraiser to encourage support and membership from within the Community.

Quarterly Newsletter (under development)
A quarterly newsletter will be distributed to the membership and community at large to highlight services, accomplishments, and goals of the organization.  The Newsletter will also contain articles and information about fatherhood and parenting.
