Rewind 25 years, and for most men, their parenting role was that of bread winner and disciplinarian, like their father before them, and so on. Mark Perlman, a licensed social worker and councilor saw an opportunity to change that dynamic while the Executive Director of his wife’s counseling center. As Mark so aptly puts it, “I started writing a program that would offer fathers a workbook guide, but as I wrote the program, I felt as if the subject matter was coming through me, rather than from me’. Mark’s program, and soon to be passed on to one of Mark’s sons, Corey, is being facilitated through counseling agencies, the military, social work curriculums and behind the walls of minimum, medium or maximum prisons, across the United States. Mark’s program takes the voluntary participants on a journey from understanding the roots of their own upbringing to developing attitudes and skills that will ultimately, over the course of the program’s 13 weeks, heal their father wound and change the trajectory of their relationship with their children.
