Advocacy
The Dads’ Resource Center is the leading advocate for single fathers and is recognized as an authority on fatherhood, the importance of father family involvement and the challenges that single fathers face when they are involved with the family court, county, and human services systems. We believe that father absence is a major factor in nearly every social issue our country faces, and that every able and willing father should be allowed to uphold his sacred responsibility as a father.
We have had national media segments or placements featuring the Dads’ Resource Center including CNN Headline News (June 6, 2022), Dallas Morning News (June 18, 2022) and the Harrisburg Patriot News (June 16, 2019).
