CHRISTOPHER BROWN, National Fatherhood Initiative

June 20, 2018

Many in the field are using protective factors as a framework as they work with parents. How does that engagement look different when we are working specifically with fathers? We talked to National Fatherhood Initiative (NFI) President Christopher Brown about how to engage dads and encourage them to build the five protective factors—and what’s unique about working with dads. Learn about resources from NFI that practitioners can use to reach out to dads and increase their involvement in their children’s lives.
