This week for the These Dads Are Doing It Right series I wanted to introduce you to the Fathering Together organization. Fathering Together is an inclusive space seeking stories that focus on the relationships that exist between fathers and their partners and children. Through the exploration of these stories, we strive to find shared experiences and values that will bring about a stronger sense of community and commitment to one another as we raise our children. In conclusion here are some of the dads that make up this group. Above all make sure you support them by checking out their site.

During the work day, you can find him working at IFYC as a Student Leadership Manager where he trains undergraduate students to build bridges across lines of religious difference.
