Ohio Commission on Fatherhood: Annual Report 2014
Jul 2014The Ohio Commission on Fatherhood (OCF) and the Ohio Department of Job and Family Services (ODJFS) are required by statute to describe the commission’s expectations for outcomes of fatherhood-related programs and initiatives and the methods for measuring those outcomes. This report summarizes OCF initiatives, pilot projects and the methodology used to measure the effectiveness of OCF funded fatherhood programs during state fiscal year (SFY) 2014.
The data contained in this report was drawn from 1,482 fathers who received direct services. Each father served by an OCF grantee was given a pre-self-assessment (intake form) and a post self-assessment (outtake form). The intake form captured information about the father regarding his relationship with his child(ren) and the challenges and barriers that prevented him from becoming the responsible father he sought to be. The outtake form detailed the services received and the state of the father’s relationship with his child(ren) after completing the program.
