Be a Dad

Be a Dad is National Fatherhood Initiative's new campaign to inspire dads to be involved in their children’s lives. The messages we receive about being good parents can be overwhelming and complicated. We wanted to simplify it.

Simply Be a Dad. Read a book. Play catch. Take a walk together. Your presence makes all the difference in the world. The Be a Dad campaign is spearheaded by a brand new public service announcement (PSA) that will be airing on television stations across the country.
