Fatherhood Matters

The Rhode Island Fatherhood Initiative was formed to increase father engagement and improve outcomes for children and families statewide.

Together, we can make a difference not only in our day to day lives but on a state policy level!

Along with support and community, our goals include engaging fathers to

  • provide authentic input to state agencies and programs

  • partner with fathers to provide leadership and input to RIFI steering committee

  • work with father leaders to increase their knowledge and advocacy skills

  • promote public awareness for policy and practice reform

“Increasing father involvement in children’s lives strengthens families, which leads to happier, healthier, and safer communities.”
