Everything we've learned about what’s most critical in engaging fathers is at your fingertips through the Father Engagement Academy™. The content of Academy courses draws on the nearly three decades of work that NFI has done to help thousands of direct-service organizations at the national, state, and local levels to engage fathers effectively and to run fatherhood programs, initiatives, and other father-focused efforts. Academy courses are perfect for anyone working with fathers, and they're especially great for onboarding new staff and continued professional development!
