SERVICE DETAILS
Our Understanding Dad Training will help you adapt your service to make dads and partners feel involved and welcome - making a big impact from small changes.
Why is understanding dad important?
We all benefit when dads are empowered as caregivers: women, children, families and society as a whole.
The evidence tells us just how important the role of dad is to the life chances of any child.
Growing up with a supportive father helps children do better at school, form good friendships, feel more confident and have a better sense of self esteem. Unfortunately services for families and children often focus on engaging and supporting mum but tend to overlook dad, despite the fact that supportive father child relationships are equally important for boys and girls. So if our services are to be designed with the interests of children truly at the centre, we must adapt so that all dads feel involved, welcome and engaged.
