Massachusetts nonprofit
Strong Fathers. Stronger Families.
Dads for Dads supports fathers—especially divorced and separated dads—in staying connected with their children through mentorship, peer support, resources, and meaningful community programs.
Why we exist
Support for dads in the moments that matter most.
Fatherhood can be meaningful and difficult at the same time. Divorce, separation, co-parenting stress, and isolation can make it harder for dads to stay present and connected. Dads for Dads exists so no father has to navigate that alone.
- • Peer support rooted in lived experience
- • Mentorship for divorced and separated dads
- • Programs that strengthen the father-child bond
