Keston Jones to present at New York State Social Work Education Association 2014 Conference


Keston Jones, Bronx Defenders Parent Advocate, will present at the New York State Social Work Education Association’s Conference on October 9, 2014.  His talk is entitled “Focus on Fathers: Myths and Misconceptions about Low Income African American and Minority Fathers.”

The presentation flows from Keston’s work with The Bronx Defenders Focus on Fathers project, which was developed to assist fathers in family and criminal court proceedings to deal with the social, economic and self-esteem struggles that arise as a result of the myriad of barriers they face.
