The Department of Family Services' Children, Youth and Families (CYF) Division includes programs designed to protect children from harm, prevent child abuse and neglect, support families and help them remain together safely for the long-term emotional and physical health of the children.
Fatherhood Awareness Month is the time to recognize the important role fathers play in their children’s development and well-being, from birth through adulthood. For children, having an involved father increases the likelihood that they will experience positive education, health, self-esteem, and social outcomes. Check out our Fatherhood Awareness Month resources for more information. Bring your family and join us for the Annual NOVA Fathers Matter Cookout, Saturday, June 22, 11:30 a.m.– 2 p.m. at Burke Lake Park. Register online by June 16, 2024.
