The ultimate goal of Fathers & Families Coalition of America to improve outcomes for children. Which raises a question, "What are is needed to improve child wellbeing for children with parents who are living one crisis away from not reaching their best?" We have so many children under-reported not living with a father in their lives around the world. The conversation Fathers & Families Coalition of America brought leaders together to at our National Families and Fathers 17th Annual Conference, February 16, 2016. These leaders include:

Dr. Blanca Enríquez, Director, Office of Head Start - Washington, DC.

Dr. Aida Díaz de Rodríguez, President, Asociación de Maestros de Puerto Rico - San Juan, PR

Brigadier General Richard Noriega, President and CEO, AVANCE, Inc. - San Antonio, TX

Fathers & Families Coalition of America is committed as one of our priorities to address the elimination of poverty in America and globally. We facilitated a release of two 2015 winter briefs on the Elimination of Poverty. In 2016, we will go to Jamaica to support the overwhelming homes in poverty. Throughout the United States, the growing cascade of the disproportionality of poverty rates has continued. During our National Families & Fathers 17th Annual Conference, February 18, 2016 Fathers & Families Coalition of America brought international experts to address Building Healthy Families and Communities.
