Jesus Nieves met his son’s mother when they were both teenagers.
They played basketball at the same after-school center, on the west
side of Manhattan, New York.
One thing that brought them closer together as a couple, other than
the basketball court, was the fact they both grew up without a father.
Good friends who stuck together through good times and bad, they
became parents and concentrated on bringing up their son Jayden.
Two years ago, when they decided to end their relationship, Nieves
was forced to move out and face a much greater challenge alone.
The challenge of growing up without his son nearby.

After Nieves completed the eight meetings, he kept going back to
the Washington Heights location to tweak his resume and prepare
for interviews. Today, he goes there as a peer outreach recruiter for
the Manhattan-based nonprofit. He tells other unemployed fathers
that it’s not about the other parent’s feelings; it’s about their child’s
feelings.
“If the fathers don’t believe [it], I’m a product of the program,” said
Nieves.
For this Father’s Day, Nieves hopes to have his own place, so
Jayden will have a room for himself — and he hopes to finally meet
his own father, someone he’s failed so far to track down.
“If I would have had my dad, I know for sure I [would not have]
wasted the time I’ve wasted,” he said.
