FATHER'S DAY 2016 | #thatsmydadmovement

That’s My Dad! #thatsmydadmovement

Fathers & Families Coalition of America is humbled to present our 2016 Father's Day highlighted initiative with an exceptional book. Mr. Joe Pellegrino has tirelessly advocated for improving the conditions for children, not only in his home state of New Jersey but as he champions their needs in Cuba, throughout the United States and internationally to increase awareness of the already known. Millions of children have suffered because a lack of father-involvement, however, there are so many good dads and not just for their children but the friends of their children and as role models to many. Today, make this the day that enough is enough with so many young boys and girls with great resiliency having to push through life because a desire to feel loved.... Take this day to be part of one of the greatest moments ever presented to Fathers & Families Coalition of America. Give this as a gift to friends, partners, husbands, dads, grandfathers, godfathers, and every man who is willing to be the man a child deserves so they can shout that is my dad!!!!

Purchase the book below to not only challenge yourself but support a tremendous global cause....

What Is A Dad?

Support our initiatives as a member (here) and or affiliate (here) today. We bring opportunities of hope, inspiration and support for professionals who desire to improve outcomes for moms, children and dads through healthier relationships. FFCA champions healthy families through many initiatives (social justice, professional conferences, training institutes, networking, fund development strategies, and more...) benefit building healthier communities and challenge all of us to help parents and children. Father's Day is approaching, we look at all the faces of children laughing, playing and inspired by great dads. Yes, we can focus on the millions of children without a father do to his choice to be absent and or unpreventable circumstances. All of us have been affected by our parents! There is not one individual in the world not affected by his or her mom and dad starting before pregnancy from the support and involvement of the parents to and for each other, during pregnancy, post-partum and in the critical first two-years of life. We identify only 16 important contributions a father provides for children all over the world. There are many more and based on the realities of millions of children thriving they are receiving an overflow of these qualities a dad brings. 

Millions of children need the uniqueness that only a father can give to his daughter and or son. We celebrate Dads Around the World but this is an opportunity to get involved helping children without a dad and in growing numbers without a mom present in everyday life. Consider supporting Fathers & Families Coalition of America today as important partner to improve outcomes for children, help moms and dads who are in need of the best support they can get, especially young moms and dads who are in-risk throughout the world that your support fosters opportunities to receive the best resources as together, we can make a difference!

HAPPY FATHER'S DAY TO ALL THE DADS AROUND THE WORLD!
