What's the cost for this program?

The R3 Academy is available for FREE to adult fathers (18+ years old) residing in California.

How long is the course?
The R3 Academy is a 24-hour program. Livestream courses meet in two-hour sessions, typically once a week for 12 weeks. Live courses can be either two-hour weekly sessions for 12 weeks or four-hour weekly sessions for six weeks. The On-Demand learning method delivers a two-hour session to your Inbox each week, which you can complete at any time during the following seven days.
What are the steps to enrolling?
To attend for free, applicants must complete a process required by HRC’s funding guidelines. The first step is completing the Eligibility Survey [make this a live link]. Once your eligibility is verified, you will be contacted by an R3 Academy Participant Representative to complete additional forms, including two surveys that will be used to conduct valuable research into the importance of Relationship Education programs.
How will I be contacted by the R3 Academy team?
Participants attending a free R3 Academy course will receive phone calls, texts, and emails from an R3 Academy Participant Representative and an R3 Academy Coach throughout the program. Participant Reps guide applicants through the application process and send weekly class reminders. Coaches offer additional support and resources. Course materials will be shipped to participants via USPS or another common carrier.
What if I miss a Live or Livestream class?
Attendance at the first session of any Live or Livestream R3 Academy is mandatory. If you are not able to attend the first session, we can transfer you to a future R3 Academy series or you can opt for the On-Demand format.

After the first class, you can make-up up to two sessions by watching a video presentation of the material you missed. These make-up videos will count toward your overall attendance, and can help you earn the incentives for attending at least 90% of the program.

The R3 Academy Customer Service Line is available 24/7. Leave a message at (877) 989-7501 and a R3 Academy representative will respond within 2-business days.
