PROPOSAL NARRATIVE
1)Describe in detail the problem that your program addresses.
There is a strong link between violent crimes, violence within the home, and an inability to
control or manage behavior. Figures from the US Department of Justice report that three out of
every four murder victims are women. Of those female homicide victims, one third were killed
by either a husband or boyfriend, according to the FBI Uniform Crime Report. The domestic
violence at the root of these violent crimes are widespread in Texas: 74% of all Texans have
personally experienced domestic violence, or know a family member or friend that has
experienced some form of domestic violence, according to the Texas Council on Family
Violence. If potential perpetrators of violence knew how to manage the emotions that spur
violent behavior, many violent crimes within families could be prevented. Many fathers simply
lack the knowledge, skills, or social support to prevent a potentially violent situation. Parents
need to learn how to manage their own anger and how to respond to the anger or violence of a
family member.
In addition, parents who allow their children to be exposed to violent situations create greater
risk for the child to later become a violent aggressor. According to the American Psychological
Association, a child's exposure to the father abusing the mother is the strongest risk factor for
transmitting violent behavior from one generation to the next. There are still more factors that
increase delinquent and violent behavior among youth. These risk factors include:
• Pattern of high family conflict
• Family management problems/poor parental supervision and/or monitoring
• Parents using harsh physical punishment and/or erratic discipline practices
• Victimization and exposure to violence
• Depression of the mother
• Poor refusal skills
• Life stressors
Because of these realities and risk factors, Catholic Charities proposes to prevent family violence,
by addressing these risk factors and teaching fathers at risk of committing acts of violence to
respond to conflict in non-violent ways.
2) Describe what your program does to 1) support crime prevention, 2) increase citizen
participation in CODE BLUE or to 3) provide a secure environment in which children can
receive an education.
Catholic Charities proposes to supports crime prevention in Fort Worth, by working with fathers
and families at high risk of family violence, youth violence, child abuse, or neglect. We will do
this by:
1. facilitating a men's treatment program for males at-risk of committing acts of family
violence, or who have a history of violence. Through educational sessions and process
Catholic Charities, Diocese of Fort Worth, Inc. 1
-awunc tnarities
Diocese of Fort Worth
Page 3
(group therapy) sessions, fathers learn about the effects of violence on the family, discover
strategies to end abusive and violent behavior, and compose a personal self-control plan.
2. providing case management to supplement the groups and address other risk factors that
put families at high risk for violence or abuse, such as financial stress.
The men's treatment program prevents violence and abuse by teaching at-risk male parents how to
cope with their anger and respond with non-violent behavior. At their first call to enroll in the
program, potential participants are screened to ensure they are willing to cooperate with the
program. At this call,participants are also given information on how to begin defusing violence
immediately. Participants begin by participating in orientation and an individual intake session.
After the intake session, the individual begins attending the two hour educational group sessions,
led by a licensed counselor. Educational sessions help participants understand the effects of
violent behavior. As part of these sessions,males create a self-control plan to aid in preventing
their own future violent behavior. After attending a few of the educational sessions, the individual
begins attending concurrent process group therapy, also led by the counselor. Process or group
therapy sessions lead participants to address the emotions underlying violent outbursts, discuss
behavior problems, and give and receive feedback from the group. In both types of sessions,
fathers address their own abusive behavior and the process of changing these violent habits and
patterns. Typically twelve process sessions are necessary, although some participants who have
difficulty changing their behavior may attend more than twelve sessions.
A case manager works with participants to mitigate factors in the family's life that create higher
risk for family violence. After working with each family to individually assess their situation,
the case manager and the family work together to jointly address problems that increase the risk
of violence in the home. In addition, the case manager is also involved in screening and
orienting participants who wish to participate in the men's treatment program.
We expect both fathers and their family members to benefit from the men's treatment program
and case management. Fathers benefit from therapy that addresses the root causes of their
learned violent habits, as well as new skills to respond to violent tendencies. Family members
benefit from increased support, improved family relationships, and fewer incidences of violence
in the home. By teaching parents new coping skills, we also prevent future family violence and
provide positive role models for the next generation.
3) Does your program address the CCPD priority/special emphasis of the prevention or
intervention of youth violence and/or family violence? Describe how your program
addresses this priority?
Yes, our program directly addresses youth and family violence,through both prevention and
intervention of family violence. We work with children, youth, and adults with risk factors to
commit acts of violence, abuse or neglect. The curriculum that we use is Domestic Abuse
Project's (DAP)Men's Treatment Group Manual, a curriculum that has been proven effective
among violent men through research(named an"evidence based"program). The DAP
curriculum specifically addresses the root causes of these problems, preventing violence from

fathers before it materializes. Participants learn specific behaviors and strategies to replace
} violent habits.
This year, we also plan to add a new component. A process group will be offered to the victims
of the perpetrators, i.e. women who are still involved in a relationship with a men's group
participant. This group will help the women understand the dynamics of family violence and its
effects on them and their children. As a result,the group will promote victim proofing, which
includes recognizing the signs (body language, behavior patterns,phrasing of words that are
indicators that the male is about to become violent), having a plan in place to keep themselves
and the children safe, and formulating a step by step action plan for violence if it does occur. Our
goal is to increase knowledge and social support for these women, which studies have shown to
help to reduce victimization and incidence of abuse. The women's group will also be a catalyst
for change in the family, because the female partners will be aware of the issues their men are
working on and the strategies that are being taught to control violent impulses. They can assist in
their partner's behavior modification which helps to reduce the incidence of family violence.
4) How will you measure the effectiveness of the program? Please describe evaluation tools
and the method of data collection that you will use. You must include specific performance
measures on the Activities and Outcomes Summary.
We plan to measure the effect of the men's treatment program on each male parent using the
Modified Conflict Tactic Scale (MCTS), a tool that has been researched and proven effective in
measuring changes in behavior of adults at risk of violence. For families in case management,
assessment for family violence will be measured using the pre and post NCFAS,North Carolina
Family Assessment Scale. NCFAS is a research-supported, evidence-based assessment tool.
5)Who will the program benefit? How many people? What age group? What geographic
area will it serve?
The program will target to serve fathers and families at-risk for violence or abuse in the Fort
Worth zip codes: 76103, 76104, 76105, 76112, and 76119, although we will serve any Fort Worth
resident in the domestic violence group who wants to address family violence issues. We
anticipate at least 35 individuals to benefit from intensive prevention and intervention in the
men's group, with potential to serve 35 more if their partners participate in the women's support
group. All group members would be offered case management services.
6) What makes this program unique from any other crime prevention program in Fort
Worth?
Catholic Charities is the only organization in Tarrant County that offers an intensive violence and
abuse prevention program, using both a research-supported curriculum and supportive case
management. According to CPS, no other local program exists that specifically equips at-risk
fathers to prevent future violent or abusive behavior, at no cost to participants.
7) Is the program already in operation? If so, how long have you operated the program?
What resources are currently used to operate the program? Why are CCPD funds
necessary at this time?

The men's treatment program was created in October 2008 as an addition to Pathways, a newly
established program at Catholic Charities dedicated to supporting families to prevent violence,
abuse and neglect. This program is part of a child welfare division that has been serving at-risk
children since 1910. The program's current services are funded through a grant from the Amon
Carter Foundation, as well as funds from our agency's fundraising efforts. We have also been
able to secure funds from Casey Family Programs as a stimulus to developing a successful
program which can be used as a pilot throughout the state of Texas.
In recent months,the program has overcome substantial initial challenges, which relate to the
long-term sustainability of this service. This men's support group was slow to get started as there
was some difficulty getting men with a family violence history to follow through on their
commitment to participate in the group. A number of men who were scheduled to start the group
chose not to start or were unable to participate. Some reasons for their inability to participate
included: conflict with their work schedule, becoming incarcerated, or dissolution of their family.
The effort was made to recruit participants from agencies that had a high number of consumers
who had family violence histories. Outreach to child protective service workers and probation
officers in the domestic violence diversion programs increased the number of participants in the
group. In this last quarter,the men's group began offering regular sessions and is now providing
an important, research-supported violence intervention service for our community.
Because our current budget will not allow us to offer this new service without CCPD support, we
are requesting funding to continue establishing this service in our local community. While this
program has been funded for one year, we have just recently developed regular referral sources
that have given us a number of new participants. Since no men have completed the treatment
program yet, we do not have the outcomes necessary to gain support from other fenders. We are
requesting an extension of the funding to allow the program to demonstrate results.
Continued seed funding from CCPD is important because these services are the only option
available for Fort Worth's males at risk of violence that lack Medicaid,private insurance, or
cannot afford to purchase the service. Other community providers of domestic violence
interventions focus on mothers and children. Catholic Charities men's group is a combination of
education and emotional therapy to help men understand the underlying causes to the violent
outbursts that have a detrimental effect on family life.
8) Is this a new program? If so,what other funds have you applied for? Also, please
describe the sequence of steps needed to implement your project and the timeframe in
which this will occur.
The program has been operating since October 2008 on funds received from Fort Worth Crime
Control and Prevention District. Since we still lack program results, no other funds for this
service have been secured.
10/2009 Continue to offer existing services funded by FW CCPD: (1) domestic violence
support group for fathers who have a history of family violence, (2) case
management services to families that at risk for abuse, neglect and family

violence.
Continue to seek referrals from local organizations that work with at risk children,
youth and adults, including schools, churches, Child Protective Services, Fort
Worth's Police Victim Assistance Unit, and programs within Catholic Charities.
We also plan to develop new partnerships with the Community Supervision and
Correction Domestic Violence Diversion programs.
1/2010 Conduct an assessment of the program's services and make any adjustments
needed. The clinical counselor leads the domestic violence support group and
women's group. The case manager provides case management services to families.
These services combine to provide intensive support and training to prevent
violence with an average of four children, youth or adults per month. The program
coordinator, case manager and clinical counselor meet monthly to examine data
collected from the previous month, discuss progress, and address challenges.
3/2010 Mid-way program assessment.
9/2010 Final evaluation of the program, including analysis of program outcomes.
9) Briefly describe the specific expenditures planned for CCPD funding. You MUST fully
complete attached budget forms.
Proposed expenditures are for a portion of salary and benefits for one clinical counselor and one
case manager, mileage to allow the case manager to make home visits and conduct sessions in
participant homes, and program supplies.
10) If funds are awarded,will this program continue beyond the CCPD funding period?
Please explain your plan to sustain this program.
Yes, Catholic Charities is committed to raising the funds necessary to sustain programs that
advance our mission: to provide service to those in need, to advocate justice and compassion in
the structures of society, and to call all others of goodwill to do the same. The men's domestic
violence group and case management to at risk families has become an integral part of our
services that address issues of child abuse and neglect and family violence. This program will
continue after the CCPD funding ends.
During this funding cycle,the Catholic Charities development team will seek sponsors, donations
and partnerships with stakeholders and fenders who have an interest in stabilizing families and
reducing the risk of child abuse, neglect and family violence. In addition to our development
team, Catholic Charities employs a grant specialist who will seek to raise the funds necessary to
sustain the program. In 2010, Catholic Charities will explore the option of billing Medicaid for
counselor time to recover some of the agency's cost for providing this service. However,
Catholic Charities will remain committed to providing services regardless of insurance coverage
or ability to pay.

Board of Directors
Catholic Charities,Diocese of Fort Worth,Inc.
Fort Worth,Texas
We have audited the accompanying statement of financial position of Catholic Charities, Diocese of Fort
j Worth, Inc. ("Catholic Charities") as of December 31, 2007, and the related statements of activities, cash
flows, and functional expenses for the year then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of
Catholic Charities' management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements
i based on our audit. The prior-year summarized comparative information has been derived from Catholic
Charities' 2006 financial statements and,in our report dated September 28,2007,we expressed an unqualified
opinion on those.financial statements.
We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of
America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued
by the Comptroller General of the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit
includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit
provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
I
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial
position of Catholic Charities,Diocese of Fort Worth, Inc. as of December 31,2007,and the changes in its net
assets and its cash flows for the year then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in
the United States of America.
In accordance with Government Auditing Standards,we have also issued our report dated July 9,2008, on our
consideration of Catholic Charities' internal control over financial reporting and on our tests of its compliance
with certain provisions of laws,regulations, contracts, grants and other matters. The purpose of that report is
to describe the scope of our testing of internal control over financial reporting and compliance and the results
of that testing,not to provide an opinion on the internal control over financial reporting or on compliance.That
report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards and should
be read in conjunction with this report in considering the results of our audit.
l Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements taken as a
1 whole. The accompanying schedule of expenditures of federal and state awards is presented for purposes of
additional analysis as required by U.S. Office of Management and Budget Circular A-133,Audits of States,
Local Governments, and Non-Profit Organizations,and is not a required part of the basic financial statements.
Such information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial
statements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the basic financial
statements taken as a whole.

POLICIES(Continued)
Cash Equivalents
Catholic Charities considers all highly liquid investments with an initial maturity of three months or less to be
cash equivalents.
Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivable represent government grant receivables and program service fees billed and uncollected at
December 31, 2007 and 2006. Catholic Charities uses the allowance.method to account for uncollectible
accounts receivable. Accounts receivable are presented net of an allowance for doubtful accounts of$10,595
at December 31,2007. Based on past experience and analysis of current receivable collectibility,management
has determined that no allowance for doubtful accounts is necessary at December 31,2006.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are valued based on appraisal data and historical cost(see Note 2).
Assets donated with explicit restrictions regarding their use and contributions of cash that must be used to
acquire property and equipment are reported as restricted support. Absent donor stipulations regarding how
long those donated assets must be maintained,Catholic Charities reports expirations of donor restrictions when
i the donated or acquired assets are placed in service as instructed by the donor. Catholic Charities reclassifies
temporarily restricted net assets to unrestricted net assets at that time. Ownership of certain assets purchased
under grant contracts revert back to the grantor prior to sale or disposal.
Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. The cost
of maintenance and repairs is charged to expense as incurred; significant renewals and betterments are
capitalized.
Recognition of Donor Restrictions
Support that is restricted by the donor is reported as an increase in unrestricted net assets if the restriction
expires in the reporting period in which the support is recognized. All other donor-restricted support is
reported as an increase in temporarily restricted net assets. When a restriction expires, temporarily restricted
net assets are reclassified to unrestricted net assets.
I Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
Management evaluates its long-lived assets for financial impairment whenever events or changes in
circumstances indicate the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is
recognized when the estimated undiscounted future cash flows from the assets are less than the carrying value
of the assets. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of their carrying amount or fair value,less cost
( to sell. Management is of the opinion that the carrying amount of its long-lived assets does not exceed their
estimated recoverable amount.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
( Catholic Charities' financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, receivables, accounts payable
l and note payable. The recorded values of cash and cash equivalents, receivables, and accounts payable
approximate their fair values based on their short-term nature. The recorded value of note payable
approximates its fair value,as interest approximates market rates.

iREPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING AND ON COMPLIANCE
AND OTHER MATTERS BASED ON AN AUDIT OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS PERFORMED IN
ACCORDANCE WITH GO VERNMENTA UDITING STANDARDS
Board of Directors
{ Catholic Charities,
Diocese of Fort Worth,Inc.
Fort Worth,Texas
We have audited the financial statements of Catholic Charities, Diocese of Fort Worth, Inc. ("Catholic
Charities")as of and for the year ended December 31, 2007, and have issued our report thereon dated July 9,
2008. We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States
of America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards,
issued by the Comptroller General of the United States.
Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
In planning and performing our audit, we considered Catholic Chanties internal control over financial
reporting as a basis for designing our auditing procedures for the purpose of expressing our opinion on the
financial statements, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Catholic
Charities internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the
effectiveness of Catholic Charities internal control over financial reporting.
A control deficiency exists when the design or operation of a control does not allow management or
employees,in the normal course of performing their assigned functions,to prevent or detect misstatements on
a timely basis. A significant deficiency is a control deficiency, or combination of control deficiencies, that
( adversely affects the entity's ability to initiate, authorize, record, process, or report financial data reliably in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles such that there is more than a remote likelihood that
a misstatement of the entity's financial statements that is more than inconsequential will not be prevented or
idetected by the entity's internal control.
A material weakness is a significant deficiency, or combination of significant deficiencies, that results in more
than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the financial statements will not be prevented or
I detected by the entity's internal control.
Our consideration of the internal control over financial reporting was for the limited purpose described in the
i first paragraph of this section and would not necessarily identify all deficiencies in the internal control that
might be significant deficiencies. We did not identify any deficiencies in internal control over financial
reporting that we consider to be material weaknesses.
Compliance and Other Matters
As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether Catholic Charities financial statements are free of
material misstatement, we performed tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations,
contracts, and grant agreements, noncompliance with which could have a direct and material effect on the
determination of financial statement amounts. However, providing an opinion on compliance with those
provisions was not an objective of our audit, and accordingly, we do not express such an opinion. The results
( of our tests disclosed no instances of noncompliance or other matters that are required to be reported under
Government Auditing Standards.

REPORT ON COMPLIANCE WITH REQUIREMENTS APPLICABLE TO EACH MAJOR
PROGRAM AND INTERNAL CONTROL OVER COMPLIANCE IN
ACCORDANCE WITH OMB CIRCULAR A-133
1I
I Board of Directors
Catholic Charities,
Diocese of Fort Worth, Inc.
Fort Worth,Texas
Compliance
We have audited the compliance of Catholic Charities, Diocese of Fort Worth, Inc. ("Catholic Charities")with
the types of compliance requirements described in the U. S. Office of Management and Budget (OMB)
Circular A-133 Compliance Supplement that are applicable to each of its major federal programs for the year
ended December 31, 2007. Catholic Charities' major federal programs are identified in the summary of
! auditor's results section of the accompanying schedule of findings and questioned costs. Compliance with the
requirements of laws, regulations, contracts and grants applicable to each of its major federal programs is the
responsibility of Catholic Charities' management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on Catholic
Charities' compliance based on our audit.
We conducted our audit of compliance in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United
States of America; the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards,
issued by the Comptroller General of the United States, OMB Circular A-133, Audits of States, Local
Governments, and Non-Profrl Organization. Those standards, and OMB Circular require that we plan and
perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether noncompliance with the types of compliance
requirements referred to above that could have a direct and material effect on a major federal or state program
occurred. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence about Catholic Charities' compliance with
( those requirements and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circa nstances.
fWe believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. Our audit does not provide a legal
determination on Catholic Charities' compliance with those requirements.
In our opinion, Catholic Charities complied, in all material respects, with the requirements referred to above
that are applicable to each of its major federal programs for the year ended December 31, 2001.
Internal Control Over Compliance
The management of Catholic Charities is responsible for establishing and maintaining effective internal control
over compliance with the requirements of laws, regulations, contracts, and grants applicable to federal
f programs. In planning and performing our audit, we considered Catholic Charities internal control over
compliance with the requirements that could have a direct and material effect on a major federal program in
order to determine our auditing procedures for the purpose of expressing our opinion on compliance, but not
1 for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of internal control over compliance.Accordingly,
we do not express an opinion on the effectiveness of Catholic Charities internal control over compliance.
A control deficiency in an entity's internal control over compliance exists when the design or operation of a
control does not allow management or employees, in the normal course of performing their assigned functions,
to prevent or detect noncompliance with a type of compliance requirement of a federal program on a timely
basis. A significant deficiency is a control deficiency, or combination of control deficiencies, that adversely
( affects the entity's ability to administer a federal program such that there is more than a remote likelihood that
l noncompliance with a type of compliance requirement of a federal program that is more than inconsequential
will not be prevented or detected by the entity's internal control.

Audit Finding: Catholic Charities personnel are not documenting that they do business with vendors that
have not been suspended or debarred by the federal government.
Corrective Action Taken: Catholic Charities initiated corrective measures to ensure that administrative staff
I responsible for setting up new vendors will go to the noted website to determine whether the vendor has been
disbarred or suspended from doing business with the federal government. The results of this check will be
entered into the accounting vendor management system used by the agency. This will be a required field for
l all vendors being set up.
1 Existing vendors in the accounting vendor management system used by the agency were checked to determine
whether the vendor has been disbarred or suspended from doing business with the federal government. The
results of this check were entered into the accounting vendor management system used by the agency.
All staff responsible for initiating the use of outside vendors were given an updated listing of disbarred or
t suspended vendors. Policy and procedures regarding the use of outside vendors were made available to all
staff which will include the procedures for determining that vendors aren't disbarred or suspended from doing
business with the federal government prior to initiating this relationship.
iA check will be run on a yearly basis to reaffirm that current vendors are still not disbarred or suspended from
doing business with the federal government. Changes to the vendor management system will be made at that
time and the listing will be updated and distributed each year.
Current Status: Process described has been implemented.
Finding No.06-2: Family Preservation, State Grant 023314450
Audit Finding: The required minimum of two home visits per month was not conducted for all participants
tested. Four out of sixteen participants selected for testing did not have two visits conducted each month and
there was no documentation to explain why the minimum number of visits was not conducted. Catholic
Charities personnel did not effectively document the fact that they were unable to perform the two home visits
per month.
Current Status: Required home visits were conducted in current year.

Mayor and Council Communication
COUNCIL ACTION: Approved on 10/20/2009
DATE: Tuesday, October 20, 2009 REFERENCE NO.: **C-23858
LOG NAME: 35FYIOCATHCHAR
SUBJECT:
Authorize a Contract with Catholic Charities for the Fiscal Year 2010 Community—Based Funding from the
Crime Control and Prevention District Fund in the Amount of$43,645.00 to Operate a Family Violence
Prevention Program
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council authorize the City
Manager to execute a contract for the Fiscal Year 2010 with
Catholic Charities, a community—based organization,to conduct
programs in support of the Crime Control and Prevention District
goals in the amount of$43,645.00.
DISCUSSION:
The Crime Control and Prevention District(CCPD)Board included
funds totaling$200,000.00 in its Fiscal Year 2010 budget for
community—based crime prevention programs.Funding requests
for community programs were solicited through a Request for
Proposal (RFP) issued in March 2009. Twenty—two requests for
funding were received totaling more than$1,100,000.00.
A panel made up of CCPD Board Members, City staff and
community representatives was assembled to review the proposals
to ensure that minimum qualifications were met and that the
proposed projects met one or more of the goals of the CCPD.The
CCPD Board reviewed the panel's recommendations at its August
13, 2009, meeting. The CCPD Board subsequently endorsed the
recommendation to fund six of the crime prevention programs
including Catholic Charities, which will be the second year of
funding this program.The term of the contract is October 1, 2009,
through September 30, 2010.
The Violence Prevention and Early Intervention Support Program
is designed to help prevent family violence, youth violence,child
abuse or neglect by addressing the major risk factors and teaching
at—risk fathers and families to manage their frustration and anger in
healthy ways. Through social support groups, Catholic Charities
hopes to prevent violence and abuse by teaching at—risk parents
how to cope with their anger. Instead of reacting to their anger with
violent behavior,participants learn new skills to manage the source
of their anger. In addition,participants benefit from increased
self—esteem, confidence and assertiveness to respond to violence
and improved family relationships.By teaching young fathers,
Catholic Charities wants to prevent future family violence and
provide positive role models for the next generation.The program
will provide services to 35 men in treatment sessions and 35
families will receive case management support.
FISCAL INFORMATION:
The Financial Management Services Director certifies that funds
are available in the current operating budget, as appropriated, of
the Crime Control and Prevention District Fund.
