A National Dads Matter!™ Project Father
For Schools, Parents, and Programs
The Down To Earth Dad®, a national organization founded in 1999 to help programs, schools, parents, and policymakers enhance children's cognitive, social, and emotional development—in the early years and beyond—provides tried-and-tested services and products that optimize male involvement in children’s lives in schools, homes, and communities across America.
The Down To Earth Dad® helps child-and-family advocates, educators, and practitioners celebrate father involvement where it is present, and “beef up" male involvement where it is absent, to optimize positive outcomes for children.
Popular Down To Earth Dad® services and products include keynotes and trainings, a parent involvement/literacy-enhancement event called Family Storytelling Night®, and "The Original" Down To Earth Dad parent newsletter for programs and schools—proven successful for 11 years (see testimonials).
