This study examined the impact of an intervention program targeted at teachers
and designed to encourage father/male involvement in state-funded prekindergarten
programs for at-risk children. Findings suggested that a significantly higher
proportion of the parent involvement contacts and activities at the treatment
site program involved fathers/men than at the comparison site program. (Author/KB)
