Why School-based Programming?

Success Stories 

What facilitators are saying:

“Because of your resources, more fathers are trying to be better fathers by spending family time together, showing affection to their children and they realize that a father's job is never done.”

"One mother stated that the brochure titled How to Help Your Child Do Well In School initiated a conversation with her husband on how he assists with the children's homework and school activities."
LeAnn Kite, Facilitator
Region 10 Education Service Center Head Start (Richardson, TX)

"We have had unusually high attendance for the fatherhood workshops that we have offered using materials provided by NFI.  These materials make it possible for us to continue to form the foundation for an ongoing fatherhood/male initiative."
