The Early Learning Coalition recognizes the critical role a father plays in a child’s development. The intent of the Father & Child Connection Program is to educate fathers on the necessary skills to assist them in fulfilling their responsibilities to their children. This is accomplished through one-on-one, group, or other events which offer activities for fathers and children. This program is entirely sponsored by the Children Services Council of St. Lucie County.
