Call Directions Website

Commonwealth Center for Fathers & Families Our mission is to support fathers in providing child and family safety, economic stability, & more.

The Commonwealth Center for Fathers and Families (CCFF) was first formed in 2005 as the Kentucky Fatherhood Initiative. Efforts began as a group of conscious and concerned professionals, service providers, government agencies, and citizens with a vision to enhance the quality of life for children and promote family well-being through healthy and positive father engagement. This group was in tune with the then-emerging acknowledgment that engaging fathers would also lift children and families. It recognized the need for a centralized agent to enhance, increase, and coordinate father engagement services across Kentucky. While the work has been maintained on various scales across administrations and for well over a decade, the efforts received a momentum boost by securing a statewide strategic planning grant in the Spring of 2019.

Have you registered yet? The Kentucky fatherhood summit is happening this week and we are excited!

This year we aim to bridge the gap between what we know about father engagement and what we actually do about it. We will have speakers, practitioners, and leaders in the room to share, pour, and collaborate on how we accomplish this!

At CCFF we are passionate about our work to improve the foundation and structure of families across kentucky and beyond.

The research is clear that when fathers are present and involved in the lives of their families and children, adverse life outcomes are mitigated.

We believe that when fathers are lifted up and equipped, children and future generations are the fortunate beneficiaries!

Presence is protective.
When fathers stay engaged, communicative, and warm, teens carry lower levels of stress and fewer depressive symptoms. That is the power of showing up, and it is a big part of why CCFF exists.

At the Commonwealth Center for Fathers & Families, we believe that when fathers are present and engaged, families thrive, communities grow stronger, and the next generation is set up to succeed. That belief guides every program we run and every father we walk alongside across the Commonwealth.

CCFF is here to help fathers across Kentucky keep showing up, every single day.
