About Me

Fathers & Families is a Massachusetts non-profit organization advocating for the right of every child to have two parents. Called by some a "fathers' rights organization," Fathers & Families is made up of men and women who believe that fathers are an essential part of a child's life and that divorce or separation should not change this.

Our Mission: Fathers & Families protects the child's right to the love and care of both parents. We seek shared parenting for the children of divorced and never-married parents, with equal rights and responsibilities for fathers and mothers.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

For every advocacy organization in America, there are two keys to success: members and money.

Our membership has now grown to approximately 1,800 men and women. In 2002, we reached our goal of $100,000 of contributions and gifts, up nearly 50% from 2001, while almost all other charitable organizations saw declines of 20% or 30%.

Our goals in 2006: 2,500 members and $300,000 in revenue, allowing us to add or improve the legal defense fund, media campaign, marketing, research, and member services.
