A father does not have to be gone to be absent.
Statistics support nearly all societal issues facing us today can be traced back to a child growing up in a father-absent home. But what if a father is at home, and still absent? It's what we call the silent statistic; present but not engaged. This form of absence has significant impact too, and whether it's a moment in conversation, or a season in life - it is every dad's fight. We provide ALL fathers (and father figures) with tools and opportunities to make a change.

dadvocate group
"Mountain top" moments are important; affording space to step outside our daily routine, think more clearly, and see our lives from a different vantage point. Family Lines specializes in facilitating these moments for dads. Yet while mountain tops are essential for gaining perspective, life is lived and worked out in the valley - and it can be hard. This virtual group of fellow fathers provides encouragement and counsel for life in the valley.
