Our Mission
Supporting Men To Become Better Fathers
Our Vision
Our vision is to equip fathers to be leaders in the home and in
the community. Men will be aware of themselves as men, and aware of
the significant impact they have in their respective families. We
help men remove the barriers that prevent them from achieving their
goals as responsible fathers. We impact the lives of families by
teaching dads new fathering skills, offering innovative vocational
training and providing supportive services.
Father Facts:
- Children who grow up without their fathers involved in their
lives are several times more likely to use drugs, drop out of
school, and be involved with the juvenile criminal justice
system.
- Research shows that, in many inner-city African American
neighborhoods, nearly 70% of children will go to bed tonight
without their father present.
- The number of single fathers that are head of household has
more than doubled in the last 20 years. A single father heads one
out of every six single-parent households.
