what is good dads?

Good Dads is the only organization in Southern Missouri focused on helping all dads be more engaged with their children. It began when business leaders in Springfield, Missouri recognized the impact of father absence on child well-being and came together for the purpose of supporting father engagement.

Good Dads aims to encourage fathers by providing inspiration, resources and events to help dads be the best they can be.
