What has happened to so many people?
Intergenerational trauma is real. You see the reports every day. About the devastating impacts to individuals, to families. Forget thriving. They’re struggling to survive.
For so many people, childhood trauma destroys their lives, their futures. It’s directly associated with addiction, homelessness, incarceration, and serious medical conditions. And the process repeats in the next generation.
Giving to break this cycle gives you purpose.
You give and it counts >> Your gift of $200 today helps break the cycle!
You give hope. Kylie’s story =
Kylie was already horribly abused and drug addicted by 15 when her first child was born. Just like her Mom! And soon after, Kylie was alone with three small children and no idea where to turn. Our Families in Recovery group changed that.
Because of you, Kylie can give her kids the love and attention she never got.
You give and it counts>> You give to create lasting hope.
A worried husband – rightfully so – found help just in time. Ray’s story =
Ray is a new dad out for a walk, knocks on our front door. Worried about his wife – without knowing why. He didn’t see the signs of postpartum depression. But after sitting down with one of our parent coaches for half an hour, Ray does now. And he knows how to get help.

Your gift builds strong bonds that create strong families. Jim’s story =
Jim was worried. He’d only held a baby once or twice in his life. He was afraid of dropping the baby. Afraid to pick her up. How would he comfort her? What kind of Dad would he be?
Conscious Fathering class answered his questions. He is now a dad with a plan. A confident dad with an active role in his daughter’s life from day one.
More than 800 dads took our Conscious Fathering Classes last year and we gave a record number of scholarships. Statistics show that involved dads improve kid’s lives. It’s a measurable dad factor. And we increase it, through Conscious Fathering.
We provide real-world solutions to help families de-stress, learn new skills, form strong bonds, and create and maintain strong support networks. Please join us by giving now>> and you will help provide solutions to break the cycle of abuse and neglect.
