Maricopa County Public Health to Host Father-Focused Baby Shower

"*Free family event provides resources for fathers, fathers-to-be, and their partners*"






PHOENIX (May 21, 2025)—Just in time for Father’s Day, Maricopa County Department of Public Health (MCDPH) will be hosting a community baby shower, focused on fathers of children two years old and younger, and expectant fathers.

MCDPH’s South Phoenix Healthy Start (SPHS) program is organizing the D.A.D. (Disciplined, Attentive, Diligent Fathers) Baby Shower to celebrate fathers and give them resources that will help them with the important role they play in their children’s lives. The event is free to attend, and the entire family is welcome. It will be held at the South Mountain Community Center from 10am to 3pm on Saturday, June 7.

“We are excited to bring together many of our community partners to offer dads support, all in one place,” said Meloney Baty, South Phoenix Healthy Start Program Supervisor. “We know that it can be hard to take care of yourself when you’re taking care of your family, and we hope that this event will make it a little bit easier for dads to take care of themselves and show their kids how important health is.”

Resources at this event will include:


* *Mobile health van *offering screenings, vaccines, and referrals to medical providers
* *Classes* including safe sleep and how dads can advocate for their kids
* *Vendors* such as mental health support and career training opportunities to help dads grow in careers with livable wages
* *Connection *with other fathers seeking community and support
* *Family-friendly activities *like games, giveaways, music, and more

Fathers who want to attend are encouraged to RSVP online [ https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSd0lflXaTwa_Rc7hA01oZawxgnRqO4VNMmimUBIcRKeslWyig/viewform ] or by calling 602-320-7526 by May 28.

This event is offered in partnership with The State of Black Arizona and sponsored by Dignity Health.

“Just like a child needs many supporters, parents need multifaceted support also,” said Baty. “MCDPH and its partners are here to support dads, even before their children are born.”
