Because
every family has special circumstances
when dealing with the loss of a
father, Families Without Fathers
provides a variety of services in an
individualized approach to meet these
unique family needs.
With your help, the following are our service
programs in development today:
|
Child Care assistance -- the
sudden transition to the work force may leave
a mother in a bind of obtaining child care
services. We help match child care services to
meet the special needs of our families in
crisis.
Counseling support -- we
bring grief counselors, depression experts and
family/children specialists who lend their
services to help families when they need it
the most.
Financial planning -- when
tragedy strikes, many families face a
financial crisis. By teaming families with
financial planners and specialists, families
can develop strategies and tactics to help
maintain quality of life standards, while
coping with a new financial reality.
Funeral assistance -- one
of the hardest emotional issues to face is the
funeral process. By helping with funeral
services, families have one less burden to
deal with.
Job and Career aid -- when
a father dies unexpectedly, the wife is often
left in the position of having to enter or
re-enter the workforce. By pooling job and
career resources, we help prepare, transform
and empower homemakers to family breadwinners.
Legal services -- by
working with family law attorneys who
specialize in tax, probate, community
property, and family related issues, families
can rest assured knowing that their legal
rights are being protected.
Social support -- the
loss of a father can create a devastating void
of social contact and interaction. Having
someone who listen, talk and even help out in
simple day-to-day activities can make a world
of a difference. Our volunteers work to lend
families a helping hand in humanizing these
times of need.
Unique needs -- when
a father dies during the holidays, little
things like buying children toys or clothes
can carry massive emotional burdens. We help
families in providing special services for
unique situations, like this where simply
providing holiday items makes a world of a
difference.
