On September 20 Sonke held a Fatherhood Graduation in Lower Crossroads.
The program promotes positive parenting and encourages fathers to be involved in their children’s lives. It also teaches fathers to be good role models for their kids.
Fathers and their children mobilised community members by going door-to-door and inviting them to join the graduation festivities. Graduates were from Gugulethu and Lower Crossroads.
