About the The Institute for Responsible Fatherhood & Family Revitalization
The Institute for Responsible Fatherhood & Family Revitalization was established in March 1994. Its mission is to encourage fathers to become involved in the lives of their children in a loving, compassionate, and nurturing way. The national organization was based on a model
program established in Cleveland, OH. The Institute now has six sites across the country.
The organization provides an innovative non-traditional, home-based service to fathers and their families, including one-to-one outreach; one-to-group outreach; and family outreach. The goal is to begin connecting fathers with their children, their families, and with their
communities. To make the most in transforming communities, IRFFR targets the community in each city where the need is greatest. Using a city's demographics of highest rates of female-headed households, out-of-wedlock births, teenage pregnancy, truancy, crime,
violence, drug and alcohol abuse, domestic violence, and mostly female-headed households, a community is thereby chosen.
