The Bethany Hope Centre mission is to support, equip and empower adults, youth and children in the Ottawa Region by building services, partnerships and faith-based  community spirit with a primary focus on young  parents and their children.

Often services like ours exclude young fathers from the picture or consider them only as a sideline. We believe that young fathers want to be an important part of their children's lives and that their healthy involvement is an important contributor to the overall well-being of their child.

Fathers at Bethany Hope Centre are welcomed to use almost all of the supports and services that we provide. We also try to provide some fathering specific programs which acknowledge that there are unique elements to the fathering role that must be acknowledged and supported.
