Strategic Fatherhood Initiatives

The strategic initiatives of the Center are designed to address, from a holistic perspective, barriers that may prevent fathers from building strong relationships with their children and families. The centerpiece of the strategic initiatives is the implementation of a Social Return on Investment (SROI) model, which measures program performance related to maximizing the return on investment for donors, investors, the general public and supporters of the fatherhood initiative in South Carolina.
