The purpose of this study is to help fathers establish and strengthen their relationship with their children and the mothers of their children; to reduce domestic violence in vulnerable families; to improve economic stability of fathers through comprehensive, job-driven career services; to employ intensive case management barrier removal, individual job coaching, and comprehensive family development to improve short and long-term outcomes.
After being informed about the study and giving consent, participants will enroll in a five-week All in Dads! program that collects data at enrollment, at the end of the program, and 12 months following the program. Research questions in this study are framed by a Descriptive Evaluation Design to assess whether outcomes improve for low-income fathers who participate in the All in Dads! (AID!) Project. Primary and secondary outcomes are assessed before and after participants complete core curricula-Father Factor, The New Playbook, and Money Smart-and Job Readiness Coaching and Career Development as employment support services (pre to post). Primary outcome measures will indicate whether behavior improved for healthy family relationships (parent, co-parent, and partner) and economic stability (financial, employment). Secondary outcome measures will indicate whether behavior improved for the attitudes and expectations that facilitate and reflect behavior for healthy family relationships and economic stability.

Individually, for five items, the higher the score the better. Six items are reverse scored, the lower the rating, the better the score. The construct is created by adding all scores together and dividing by 11. The higher the score on a scale of 1-5, the better the outcome. The lower the score, the worse the outcome. | Change from baseline in co-parenting behavior at 12 months from enrollment. |
