The importance of a father in a child's life is immense. As a father, you have a lasting impact on your children and the way they learn, love and grow throughout their life. Dads do so much for their children and deserve the love and support from those around them to continue doing it all!
The DCS Office of Prevention was established to prevent child abuse/neglect. To support the needs of children and strengthen families, the Office of Prevention collaborates with the Community, Service Providers, Stakeholders and the DCS Field Staff. Through these collaborations, the Office of Prevention leverages resources, education, training and programs based on best practices to serve Arizona’s children and families.
The DCS Office of Prevention compiled resources and videos to share in this video loop. The video contains 30 resources from around the state along with interviews from Arizona parents. It is intended to be used in offices or clinics where families can view it and benefit from the information. If you are interested in downloading a copy, please email [email protected] .
