The manosphere isn't winning because of its message. It's winning because it offers belonging — a place to show up.

So we built one for dads. And it's working: across multiple cities, we focused on what dads do best instead of lamenting what they lack. Attendance goals came in 45% over, and civic service grew 79%.

That's the playbook we want to talk about at SXSW 2027 — but community voting decides who makes the stage. Help us get there. 👇

One of our dads on the paid leave he got when his son was born — and why every father deserves the same this Father's Day. 🤍

Dads: tell your paid leave story and tag us and Paid Leave for All

Proud to see our Cleveland chapter, Dads Stand Up CLE, featured in Northeast Ohio Parent this week.

Co-founders Jon Gromek and Nick Walton started it because something was missing. As Jon put it: "Our wives were in mom groups, with text chats blowing up, and for a variety of reasons we just really didn't have that as dads. We wanted to create that kind of community."

So they built it — events made for fathers, a halftime shootout with the kids at a Cleveland Soccer Club match, and a Habitat for Humanity build in the works. Big Dad Energy showing up in the community.

Jon said it best: "I love this little community we have." Link in comments.

If you're a dad in Northeast Ohio looking for that kind of community, follow along: Dads Stand Up CLE

The Heritage Foundation's "Saving the Family" report defines only one kind of dad: in the home, bringing home the paycheck. Miss either, and you don't count.
We disagree. So does the data.

Researchers Dr. Cassandra Bolar and Haley Swenson, alongside organizer Kareem Chadly, break down why the "deadbeat dad" stereotype doesn't hold up — and why dads today are showing up in ways the old story never accounted for.
Dads don't fit in your box. 💪

The Heritage Foundation's new report defines fatherhood in a very specific way: a married biological father, living under the same roof, functioning primarily as a breadwinner.

If you're a father who shows up consistently — at school pickups, at pediatric appointments, at 11pm phone calls — the report's policy framework doesn't count you. Its proposed Family and Marriage tax credit is available only to married biological parents filing jointly. Its childcare credit is available only to married couples. Involved fathers outside of marriage are invisible by design.

And on the other side of that same coin: the report's own regression analysis lists women entering the workforce as one of the primary drivers of declining fertility rates. It proposes a $2,000 credit explicitly designed to make staying home financially competitive with paid work — available only to married couples.

This report not only amplifies the corrosive idea that when women succeed, families fail but builds policy around it.

On June 10, we're putting the real data and real fathers on the table. Free to join: tr.ee/dadswebinar

Dads have sat out the fight over childcare, housing, and healthcare for too long — issues that were always about their own families.

Dads for All co-founder Justin Cohen on the Firewall podcast: moms have carried this. It's past time dads showed up too. Dads for All exists to get them into in a fight that needed to be theirs all along.
