Fathers are central to the emotional well-being of their children. Research confirms that if a child's father is affectionate, supportive, and involved he contributes greatly to the child's healthy development, academic achievement, sense of self-worth, and other critical elements associated with positive life outcomes. Healthy fathers and families are essential to the overall health of our cities and neighborhoods.
This tool helps you assess how your organization encourages (or doesn't encourage) father involvement in the activities and programs offered by your organization.

At the second Texas Fatherhood Summit IN 2017, attendees participated in a Fatherhood Recruitment Challenge. For this activity, attendees brainstormed recruitment strategies with other attendees at their table and created a list. Child and Family Research Partnership (CFRP) compiled and organized the 200+ ideas into the list. You can use this list as a resource for your fatherhood programs!
Despite this growing recognition of the vital role fathers play in the lives of their children and families, most family services programming was designed with only mothers in mind. Diversity in fatherhood roles and circumstances suggest the need for careful design of interventions to remove barriers to father involvement and to engage fathers in
programming to strengthen their lives and their role in the lives of their children.
The National Responsible Fatherhood Clearinghouse is an Office of Family Assistance (OFA) funded national resource for fathers, practitioners, programs/Federal grantees, states, and the public at-large who are serving or interested in supporting strong fathers and families.
