There are a lot of factors that can impact a father's ability to connect with their children, but one of the most common is penitentiary. Most fathers, when they get imprisoned, they’re denied the opportunity to bond with their children. This can result in children going to the streets or becoming rebellious towards their mother as they try to fill in for their absent father. Fathers are key figures in the lives of their children, and it is important for them to be fully involved and visible in their children’s lives.

Joined the conversation with JJ Johnson, the operation manager of Miracle Club. Johnson was previously working for Central City concern, Golden West HRR program (Housing Rapid Response). At Miracle Club, he works as a supervisor over mentors who deal with people struggling with addiction. They have a recovery house, and it houses eight men and one house manager. 

During the episode, Johnson shares how losing his son to drugs after coming out of jail inspired him to help the community. We also dive into the importance of fatherhood, taking responsibilities, and adjusting your parenting strategies to create positive change.
