Nearly 200 dads and students in Montgomery participated in the second annual Breakfast with Dads.

The event took place at Jeff Davis High school; principal Desmond Mullins says it’s been proven when dads are involved in their children’s lives they are more successful.

The event was organized by Rico Cox, a JD educator and founder of “Youth in Government.” The program’s guest speaker was Montgomery County Circuit Judge Johnny Hardwick.
