About
the Project
The New Mexico Young Fathers Project (NMYFP) is a program which helps young fathers under the age of 26. Participants receive individual case management, mentorship and learn life skills in groups with other young fathers. They receive training in parenting, relationship skills and decision making. Participants also learn to navigate systems that impact their families and imrpove employment outcomes. Some participants are trained to become peer mentors/educators and conduct presentations to other young fathers and community groups.
