For years the Council of State Legislators have advocated for non-punitive measures to encourage responsible fatherhood from dads not living with their children. In reality there are many unheard-of stories of men seeking to be active in the lives of their children. However, one significant barrier is the transition from incarceration to the free world. When financial resources become available for non-custodial father engagement with their children, there needs to be a process by which they are orientated to take full advantage of them.

Dr. Rueben Dockery, and his featured guest, Pastor David Lomax, Mount Sinai Cumberland Presbyterian Church as he offers some suggestions for effective fatherhood restoration measures.
