Free Web Conference: Dads in the Mix: The Future of Responsible Fatherhood Initiatives
Dads in the Mix: The Future of Responsible Fatherhood Initiatives
March 19, 2008
Web Conference
1 pm ET / 12 pm CT / 11 am MT / 10 am PT
Register Online
Almost 25 million children in the U.S. are growing up in families without a father present, a number roughly two-and-half times higher than four decades ago. A growing body of research documents ways children benefit when they have engaged fathers, including better school performance, reduced substance abuse, less crime and delinquency, fewer emotional and other behavioral problems, and less risk of abuse or neglect. Federal initiatives have helped states create a broad array of programs that actively engage fathers in the lives of their families.
This web conference will analyze fatherhood research and programming as part of a broader movement to strengthen families. Panelists will also discuss promising strategies that some states are implementing to increase father involvement, and the potential for expanding and improving programs as new and continuing funding sources become available.
Speakers:
Robert Johnson, National Fatherhood Leaders Group
Matthew Stagner, Chapin Hall Center for Children at the University of Chicago
Gardner Wiseheart, Healthy Families San Angelo
Moderator: Patrick Boyle, Youth Today
