Ujima: The principle of collective work & responsibility
Pass the truth to the next generation.
Teach them early what we learn late.
The Father’s Group offers weekly fun, nurturing, and engaging environment for students to grow and learn after school. Ujima curriculum helps inspire important life skills and instill confidence, fostered by caring volunteers and educators.
Our Winter 2024 sessions will begin on Wednesday, February 7, 2024 at the Deschutes County Library with classes beginning at 3:00 PM and lasting until 5:00 PM. If your child has never attended, please pre-register below so we will be ready to properly welcome them!
The sessions we have planned for this semester are dynamic, interactive and ready to spark the imaginations and whimsy of our students!

Ujima is changing! New Schedule. New Curriculum. Foundation Building! Bridging The Gap!
Ujima has been a dedicated part and foundational pillar of the work that we have conducted since the beginning of The Father’s Group. The world has changed significantly since it’s inception and the time for family building is at an all time high! We will be updating this page with the new, revitalized schedule, registration options, partnerships, opportunities, and more soon!
