A new nonprofit organization is set to introduce immersive weekend retreats for parents in St. Petersburg, addressing the crucial role of fatherhood in child development. Founded by Patrick Diggs and Jared Ezzard, Empowered Parents aims to provide psychoeducation workshops and essential resources designed to enhance parenting skills. The initiative specifically emphasizes the importance of fatherly involvement, recognizing the adverse effects that a lack of paternal presence can have on children's overall well-being.
Through these retreats, participants will engage in a variety of activities that promote personal growth and effective parenting strategies. The workshops will cover topics such as emotional intelligence, communication skills, and the significance of active engagement in children's lives. Diggs and Ezzard believe that by equipping parents with the necessary tools and knowledge, they can foster healthier family dynamics and ultimately contribute to a brighter future for the next generation.
Empowered Parents is committed to creating a supportive community where fathers can connect, share experiences, and learn from one another. The retreats are designed not only to educate but also to inspire and empower parents to take an active role in their children's lives.
