Fatherhood is the state of being a father. A person enters fatherhood when they become a father. This most commonly happens when their child is born, but it can also happen through adoption or by marrying or becoming a partner to someone with children.

Men's Health Network (MHN) is a national non-profit organization whose mission is to reach men and their families where they live, work, play, and pray with health awareness and disease prevention messages and tools, screening programs, educational materials, advocacy opportunities, and patient navigation.

Founded in 2013 by Professor Bruce Robinson in Western Australia, The Fathering Project now has a national footprint in metro, rural and remote communities across the country. The Fathering Project is a secular not-for-profit organisation which provides research-based programs and resources to engage, inform, equip and support fathers, father figures, families, schools, corporates and community organisations. We aim to connect the community to build brighter futures for our children. The research says when fathers are engaged and equipped to be the best they can be, it has significant benefits for a child’s health and wellbeing. Dads Groups are the Project’s core activity and are established within schools and community groups across the country. The groups provide a safe, inclusive and positive environment where father-figures can learn, share, grow and connect with each other, and their kids. The Fathering Project also conducts regular research, evaluating its programs, as well as looking more broadly into societal trends and issues that impact fatherhood.
