Connecting fathers and male role models with children  

As our lives become busier with more pressures on our time, it is important to make time for each other to continue to build relationships with our children as they grow. At the recent national parent council (CSPA) meeting we learned of a wonderful organisation who are making this possible for many fathers, father figures and children in schools across Australia. 

The Fathering Project is an Australian based organisation who are dedicated to ensuring children have positive male role models in their lives. The organisation is also dedicated to supporting men to be the best they can be as they face many challenges of their own. 

Research shows that more effective fathering means a generation of kids with happier, healthier futures.

The Fathering Project is working to inspire and equip dads and father figures to be the best parents they can be, for the benefit of kids.

Visit the Fathering Project website for further information about forming a Dad's Group in your school. Other information is available on camps, events and resources to help father's and father figures to support children for a better future.
