Change Systemic Social Injustice

July 21, 2014 - PRLog -- Our nation is bedeviled with the epidemic destruction of fatherless homes, i.e. high school dropouts, teen pregnancy, suicide and mental health disorders (not inclusive to depression and anxiety) to name a few.  We have spent years and millions of dollars marketing and advertising large organizations that focus on mothers and their children. Yet, give little to no notice of the importance of the father’s presence.

Fathers Rise Together is invested in working with fathers who are actively involved with their children, interested in being in a co-parent relationship with the mother of his child (ren) and whom are head of single parent households.
