Who Are We?

Our focus is on the role of father and developing the strategies for supporting healthy

fatherhood. Our outreach is directed at young fathers, and fathers with other

identifiable challenges that could negatively impact their parenting. These men have

inspired us with countless stories illustrating profound dedication, perseverance through

challenging circumstances and consistent support for their children.

Like so many mothers have shown us, fathers can raise, love and nourish their children

despite the disadvantages they might start with. But, nobody parents alone and Fathers

NM provides support and encourages participants to connect with family, with other

supports and with responsible friends to help them. Fathering is at its best when done

in positive collaboration with mom, whether the parents are together or not.
