Project Fatherhood

Psychologist Jorja Leap joined Project Fatherhood to help block the "cradle-to-prison pipeline" in the L.A. neighborhood of Watts. Randye Kaye narrates the account with a tone of revelation. Listeners hear how Leap herself learns as she helps fathers find their roles in their families' lives. As the fathers deal with tough issues--abuse of women and children, gangs, drug dealing, and violence in the community--the revelations of Leap's growing understanding of their lives make the story a dramatic cliff-hanger. The program continues, so its story is still unfolding. Leap gives listeners a feeling of hope for the future of Watts and the fathers in Project Fatherhood.
