About this Event

Join us!

The Fatherhood Forum brings fathers, father figures, and families together for a day of connection, conversation, and support. Centered on the theme Building the Foundation, this event recognizes the role fathers play in creating strength, stability, and direction for their children and families.

Childcare will be available during the event, and families can take their own free family photo.

Throughout the day, guests will hear from speakers, join breakout workshops, connect with community resources, share a meal, and take part in conversations that reflect real life. It is a chance to connect with other fathers, gain useful insight, and be in a space that values the importance of fatherhood.
