Father to the fatherless – Training weekend announced
CVM are offering training for any men that want to step up to the task of mentoring young men in desperate need of a Godly male influence.
Father to the Fatherless - Raising Men-To-Be
Children growing up without their biological father are more likely to offend*
76% of young men in prison/institutes come from homes with absent fathers**
CVM recognise the value of adult men investing their time and wisdom in the lives of the men of ‘tomorrow’. We’ve seen, first hand, the long-term negative effect of absent fathers, on their children. Particularly boys.
We want to provide fatherless teenagers and young adults with good mentors to help walk with them at this critical time in their lives.
CVM have teamed up with The eXceL Project (XLP) to train up men and men’s groups to run their own mentoring projects through which they can invest in young people who are struggling with life.
With XLP and through our CVM men’s groups we trust that we can make a big difference in the lives of this country’s men-to-be.
