Fathers are needed! Research shows that fathers are crucial to the intellectual, emotional, and social development of children (Wackerman 1996), and it is essential to reduce the “fathering” void as research shows fatherlessness does harm in the lives of adolescents (Rodney & Mupier 1999). Another major component of father absenteeism is incarceration. In most prisons, black and brown skin prisoners outnumber every other ethnicity. This is a problem that must be fixed.

 

Fatherhood Mastery, LLC was created to help change the way fathers are culturally and socially perceived, and to help support fathers who feel that they have been forgotten. Not all fathers are absent. We are here to support the men who view themselves as incapable of providing, nurturing, and protecting their children, families, and communities. There are many dads out there giving their best effort and going above and beyond for the ones they love. Fatherhood Mastery is here to encourage you!

 

Fatherhood Mastery, LLC wants to support fathers in three ways: by providing encouraging and inspiring apparel; by bringing more awareness by connecting dads to evidence-based research surrounding fatherhood; and by offering parenting education and leadership training resources to help dads become better fathers and leaders for their families and communities. Be on the lookout as we implement these things in the months to come!
