The benefits of the program are many, according to WATCH D.O.G.S.®. Founder Jim Moore.
Schools gain an extra set of eyes and ears. The presence of a father or father-figure enhances a sense of security at the building for students and staff and helps create an environment conducive to learning.
Children gain a positive male role model. Many children do not have a father-figure present in their home and these children benefit when a positive male role model is present.
Fathers get a glimpse of their child's everyday world and learn about the increasingly complex challenges and decisions today's youth are facing. As a result, they can learn to relate better to their child and hopefully connect with them.
Fathers gain a greater awareness of the positive impact they can have on their child's life in three critical areas including: academic performance, self esteem, social behavior
