CMHA Grey Bruce announces start date for winter sessions of My Dad's Group

CMHA Grey Bruce has announced the starting date for the winter sessions of the My Dad's Group.

The group "gives guys the chance to connect with other dads, learn more about their children’s needs through different ages and stages, and work on the skills they need to be effective parents and co-parents," according to CMHA Grey Bruce.

The winter session starts on January 19 and 20, and runs weekly for 11 weeks on Mondays in Owen Sound and Tuesday evenings in Hanover.

Sessions are from 6-8:30 p.m. and are free to attend. Dinner is provided, and gas cards are available to support attendance for men facing transportation challenges.

Interested dads can register online at https://greybruce.cmha.ca/programs/my-dads-group/ or contact the Men’s Program at 519-372-2720 or via email at mp@cmhagb.org. Registration is on a first-come basis and spaces are limited.

"January can be a time of new beginnings for people." said Men’s Program Supervisor, Jon Farmer. "We’re encouraging any men who want 2026 to be a year of strengthening relationships with their children, their co-parents, and partners to join us for the next session of My Dad’s Group. It’s a chance to connect with other dads, deepening your learning, find encouragement, and build positive patterns."
