THE WORLD NEEDS A FATHER
EQUIPPING FATHERS || BUILDING HEALTHY FAMILIES || TRANSFORMING COMMUNITIES || HEALING THE WORLD
We are working towards
nothing less than heaven at home
in every family around the world through
training, mentoring and networking.
We’ve been building families through training and mentoring since 2011.
We’ve shared hours, stories and tears with people in all walks of life from over 100 countries.
We’ve worked with specialists, researchers, doctors, scientists, governments and presidents.
We’ve done the research.
We have absolutely no doubt.
Fatherlessness is aN
URGENT, DEVASTATING
global CATASTROPHE
Our movement is built on the passion of volunteers around the world.
People who have been profoundly affected by the impact — or lack thereof — of a father figure in their lives.
People who don’t want their children to grow up with the same wounds.
THEY ARE THE GLOBAL RESPONSE
We are responding to this crisis in three ways:
Building a global network of trainers
We have three training levels aimed at helping men grow start by building a solid foundation in our content, maturing into master mentors capable of overseeing a network of 1000+ trainers in their country. The three levels are:
- Dads Talk — Helping fathers understand the basics of manhood and fatherhood and giving them the tools to apply the principles in their lives and those of their families.
- Fatherhood Facilitator — Equipping fathers who have been through levels one or two with the tools to train other fathers
- Master Mentor — Taking men who have completed a fatherhood facilitator training and are already training other fathers to the next level. This training goes deep into the course material, giving the trainers a broad and deep understanding of the content, and how to apply it in training.
Creating communities of practice
Research consistently shows that the best way to learn is to practice and to teach. To that end, we put a high emphasis on developing communities of fathers around the world who share what they’ve learned, encourage each other, and strengthen the movement from the ground up.
These communities are encouraged by local trainers and coordinators, but there is no formal structure they have to follow; the goal is for fathers to connect and share in a manner and time that works best for them. We provide resources for anyone who asks, but we encourage the coordinators and master mentors in each country to build momentum in a way that is most appropriate for their context.
Developing resources
We believe the training content we have developed is life-changing, and we want any trainer or person who wants to become a better father to have access to it for free. The only time we charge for trainings is to cover costs, and any profits made go back into building the movement.
You can find all of our training content by clicking the button below, along with many of the books we recommend and YouTube playlists of videos we use in trainings. We are also constantly creating new resources, so keep that page bookmarked — any new content will be added there.
TRAINING FATHERS IS THE ENGINE DRIVING US
but it isn’t the only way we’re tackling fatherlessness.
No matter where in the world you are,
we want to be part of the solution to fatherlessness.
