Atlanta, Ga. — U.S. Senator Jon Ossoff is delivering resources to strengthen the 100 Black Men of Atlanta’s Fatherhood Initiative.
Bringing Republicans and Democrats together, Sen. Ossoff is delivering funding to strengthen and expand 100 Black Men of Atlanta’s Fatherhood Initiative.
According to the 100 Black Men of Atlanta, the initiative provides bi-weekly programs with life coaches to help individuals reach personal and professional goals and connect them to housing, mental health, and job placement resources, monthly workshops focused on co-parenting, legal rights, financial literacy, and employment readiness, and community spaces to connect with peers.
Sen. Ossoff is delivering $320,000 for the project through bipartisan government funding legislation that became law on February 3.
“100 Black Men of Atlanta provides vital resources to the community, and I’ve been proud to work alongside their leadership and members. I elevated this project as a top priority and secured bipartisan support to deliver this funding,” Sen. Ossoff said. “I will continue working closely with 100 Black Men of Atlanta in their work to strengthen educational and economic opportunities.”
“On behalf of the 100 Black Men of Atlanta, we are deeply grateful to Senator Jon Ossoff for his leadership and commitment to strengthening families across our community. This investment in our Fatherhood Initiative affirms what we have always believed: when fathers are equipped, supported, and empowered, entire communities thrive. These resources will allow us to expand our reach, deepen our impact, and continue providing the coaching, life skills, and critical support systems that help fathers lead with purpose, stability, and vision. We look forward to building on this partnership to create lasting change for the families we serve,” said Aaron N. Swain, Chairman, 100 Black Men of Atlanta, Inc.
