Website Name: National Fatherhood Initiative (NFI) - 0 views

  •  
    The mission of The National Fatherhood Initiative (NFI) is to improve the well-being of children by increasing the percentage of children being raised by "involved, responsible, and committed fathers." It is a well-known fact that children who lack the involvement of responsible, committed fathers are more susceptible to life difficulties. NFI brings together those in need & those who can help & offers a forum for anyone interested (from future parents, to educators, to policy makers) to study & collect reliable information as well as a community of similar interests & concerns. The home page of the website was easy to use & understand. It is accessible to the general public, does not require any knowledge, and it provides valuable information and resources (including mailing lists) for free. Among the many items that speak to this organization's credibility is its executive office. Roland Warren, a Princeton alumnus, husband of a doctor, father of a Harvard alumnus and a UNC alumnus who has recently completed his master's degree. Christopher Brown, the organizations Executive VP trains individuals and organizations on creating father-friendly organizations; he teaches how to develop, market, and evaluate fatherhood programs. He is the author and co-author of NFI curricula and has appeared as a fatherhood expert in media outlets including the L.A. Times, New York Times, Nick Jr. Magazine, and CNN. I was impressed that the site focused more on resources to improve involvement as well as ideas not only on the website, but also in the form of email newsletters that offer suggestions & solutions. Our studies have focused on the business aspect of creating family-friendly work policies and while crucially important, I like that this website recognizes accountability on both sides of the fence. It is important for organizations to recognize that parents need to be there for their children, but parents need to ensure that they are making good use of the time they

    I really liked your review and your site. It is so important for companies to realize the importance of a child's need for their father in their lives, but also for parents to understand this importance as well. I think this is a great site for fathers to refer to in scheduling time for their work, self, and family.
