Dadvocates Wanted!

Children's Advocacy Center of Southwest Florida is proud to announce their new fatherhood mentorship program, "Level Up! Dads".  We are seeking any man who is confident in his abilities as a father to help mentor other fathers, boyfriends, step-fathers, and relatives who find themselves in the position of a father, but lacking the support and confidence needed to meet their full potential. 

Volunteers will be matched and paired with clients based on children's ages and number, interests, and values and will be allowed to grow their own relationship, be it as simple as weekly phone calls, to as in-depth as regular outings and meet-ups.  Your goal as a Dadvocate will be to offer support, guidance, and education to these men putting in the effort to be the best version of themselves possible for their children. 

Dadvocates are asked to maintain at least once per week contact with their assigned Dad as well as check in with program staff every three weeks.

Dadvocates are more than welcome, though not required, to attend any and all Level Up! Dads sponsored events. 

Feel free to contact 239-939-2808 or email dads@cac-swfl.org for more information. 

All Dadvocates will be required to complete a Level 2 background screening to include fingerprints and a drug screen.
