The role of a father is integral in the life of his child or children as it is vital to their growth & development. Having a parent absent with or without explanation is detrimental to the growth & development of a child. Leaving lasting affects on a child as he/she attempts to navigate his/her life's journey. Community Dad understands the challenges children face when their fathers are not consistently present in their lives and the importance of alleviating factors that contribute to the impediment of a child's health and well being. 

Missing Dad is a program designed to help bridge the developmental gap needed for children to thrive. We've designed a program that offers services in compliance with 18 U.S. Code § 3509 and state guidelines s. 39.822 (a) and s. 61.403 specifically for youth impacted by paternal absenteeism. Whether a father is absent due to death, economic instability, mental health, unhealthy habits, or incarceration; Missing Dad is a conduit resource for at risk youth mitigation.
