About Us
Fathers’ UpLift is the country’s first mental health and substance abuse treatment facility for fathers and families, helping fathers become and remain emotionally stable for their children. Fathers’ UpLift uses peer coaching, father-child therapy, training, youth programs, and support for incarcerated and recently released fathers to honor and rehabilitate the relationship between thousands of fathers and families in the Boston area. In their outpatient clinic, over 800 fathers and families receive mental health services from clinicians trained in trauma who reflect the population being served. Outside of the clinic, Fathers’ UpLift partners with community centers, substance abuse programs, and other agencies to build a holistic approach to helping fathers rebuild their lives and their relationship with their families.
About the Homecoming Program
Integral to our efforts with fathers re-entering society is our Fathers’ Homecoming program, where Fathers’ UpLift staff work with both incarcerated populations and program participants post-release. We meet our fathers at the prison gate, escort them to their homes, monitor their mental health, and assist in creating a pathway for success. With Fathers’ UpLift’s Fathers’ Homecoming Program, licensed staff, social workers, and coaches work with incarcerated fathers three months before their release. During this time, the fathers work on developing core skills and learning how to connect in healthy ways with family members in efforts to build relationships that are supportive and impactful in the hope that they have stronger bonds with their family and their community when they are released.
