Gallery: MO Community Leaders Join Good Dads in First-Ever Chapter Orientation

Good Dads hosted its first-ever Chapter Orientation event on Wednesday, July 17, and it was a real hit! With our increased focus on expansion, aimed at reaching more dads throughout Missouri than was previously possible, we know that building relationships and empowering a community to take ownership of a Good Dads initiative is critical.

We are so grateful to the community leaders—some of whom travelled quite a ways—to attend an all-day orientation and learn about what it means to become a Good Dads Chapter. Together, we can build better communities one dad at a time!

These leaders learned from Dr. Jennifer L. Baker, founder and executive director, about what Good Dads can offer in support of father-focused initiative in their neck of the woods.

We hope community leaders took a lot away from this exciting and invigorating session. It was a pleasure to host you!
