New things Are Happening at Gennisi!

Hey Village,

Like our title says, new things are happening at Gennisi! We’re excited to share that our very first Dads for Moms event and Focus Group were both a huge success. Between both events 57 dads were in attendance. We received incredible feedback on what fathers are looking for when connecting with other dads as well as what they need in order to be the best support for moms through pregnancy, birth and postpartum. They also shared ideas for what a dad program could look like and what organizations like Gennisi could do for fathers. A BIG THANK YOU to United Way of Knoxville and Trinity Health Foundation, our grantors, who made both events possible!

✅Be on the lookout for details about our upcoming community events and the beginning of our programming for dads!
