Father Friendly Checkup Logo: Is your organization father friendly?

FREE Father Friendly Check-Up

Our free Father Friendly Check-Up™ is designed to help you determine just how father friendly your organization is! This assessment will analyze your physical environment/location, organizational philosophies, staff attitudes, and more to determine your score.

Why Take the Check-Up?

Father involvement is critical for your organization in many ways. Getting fathers involved is essential for happy, healthy, well-adjusted children and families.  When dads aren't involved, children are more likely to:

  • engage in drugs, alcohol, violent crimes, and other harmful behaviors
  • drop out of school
  • live in poverty
  • face teenage pregnancy
  • struggle with depression and even commit suicide

The Father Friendly Check-Up™will help you successfully engage dads and strengthen the families in your community!  This tool will help you assess the degree to which your organization’s operations encourage father involvement in the activities and programs offered by your organization.
