     This month we are going to focus on the selection of the 2nd annual Father of the Year. The cut off date for the nomination was April 15th and now we will allow the selection team to pick the best candidate from all the nominations. We also want to thank all of our supporters who donated to our Give a Dollar for a Father fund raiser. The proceeds of the campaign are used to help us with The Father of the Year Expenses as well as Father Daughter and Father Son Recognition day activities.

     Also please remember that the 2012 NPCL Fatherhood conference in Fort Lauderdale, FL on June 12-15, 2012  is where we will be presenting our second annual Father of the year award.  We have many other things to share as you read our newsletter and we thank you for your continued support.

Mother's Day

May 13, 2012


Gentlemen, a large part of being a good father is honoring the mother of your children. Set the example of what a Good father should be by allowing your children see that you honor and respect their mother. Be the men of character that your are and do something special for the mother of your child.

 

Father Son Father Daughter Recognition Day Petition

To:  U.S.Congress

 

The relationship between a father and his child is a relationship that should be honored, respected, and encouraged. This country is facing an epidemic of children growing up without the love, support, and encouragement that a father can provide. Data from the U.S. Dept. Health and Human Services shows that children from fatherless homes are:  

 

· 5 times more likely to commit suicide.  

· 32 times more likely to run away.

· 20 times more likely to have behavioral disorders.

· 14 times more likely to commit rape.

· 9 times more likely to drop out of school.

· 10 times more likely to abuse chemical substances.

· 9 times more likely to end up in a state operated institution.

· 20 times more likely to end up in prison.  

 

The Committed Fathers Alliance is dedicated to enhance the relationship between fathers and their children. In an effort to restore strained relationships and enhance existing relationships between fathers and their children, the Committed Fathers Alliance is proposing a National Father Daughter Recognition Day to be held on the third Saturday in the month of April and a National Father Son Recognition Day to be held on the third Saturday in the month of July. These are days where the relationship between a father and his daughter and a father and his son can be celebrated by the general public along with the father and his child. These will be special days where a father can enhance the relationship with his children by sharing an activity, special event, or dinner as a means of showing the love and commitment he has for his child. Please help our efforts to establish these special days by signing this petition in order to show your support of the importance of reestablishing and enhancing the father children relationships in this country.   

Sincerely,
