What is the difference between 24:7 Dad® A.M. and P.M.?

Both versions use the same philosophy, background, and structure. The difference lies in the topics that are covered in each version. 24:7 Dad® A.M. covers basic fathering skills and topics while 24:7 Dad® P.M. covers deeper fathering skills and topics.

Description Most organizations choose to run 24:7 Dad® A.M. first followed by 24:7 Dad® P.M., especially with dads who have never been through a fatherhood program. 24:7 Dad® P.M. covers deeper fathering skills and topics, and is ideal for fathers who have already been through 24:7 Dad® A.M. or another fatherhood program.
