Fathers matter
Parenting rights should not be a zero-sum concept. We passionately support and advocate the rebuttable presumption of 50/50 equal shared parenting. Our goal is to help fathers who want equal, shared parenting to understand their rights and to give these fathers access to the support and resources they need to successfully navigate the pain and frustrations of child custody proceedings in Family Court.
Our advocacy on behalf of fathers is not about impinging on the rights of mothers. Children need both parents. In fact, a recent summary of 40 studies on the outcomes for children of shared physical custody, found that equal, shared parenting is most beneficial for the children. The studies saw that overall, the children and shared parenting families have better outcomes on measures of emotional, behavioral, and psychological well-being, as well as better physical health and better relationship with their fathers AND mothers.
According to the US Census Bureau, 1 out of 3 children in America live in homes that are absent their biological father. Our advocacy is ultimately for the best interests of children.
What we can’t do alone, we can do together
We love working with those already doing amazing work in the community. We hope our small contributions act as a cherry on top of the blessings folks are already receiving from other honorable organizations.
