Since 1987, the nonprofit Fathers Incorporated has promoted the values of brotherhood, manhood, fatherhood, and gentlemanship.
Its four programs encourage men and fathers to embrace their roles in their families and communities:
Helps formerly incarcerated, nonviolent men reconnect with their families and communities.
Brings together elders and youth.
Offers grants encouraging male students to become nurses.
Recognizes deserving fathers in communities facing high rates of violence and hardship.
The award “identifies, acknowledges, and rewards deserving fathers from US cities experiencing high rates of violence, family, and community affliction.”
“The Father of the Year Award is made to a ‘deserving father’ living in the midst of chaos, mayhem, and confusion who changed his life, the life of children, family, and community for the better,” Woodson said. “The goal of the award program is to positively change the hearts and minds of men and fathers and encourage the concept of family and community.”
Fathers are nominated by family, friends, or others who know them as exceptional fathers and assets to their communities. They’re evaluated on the past year’s achievements, earlier accomplishments, and ongoing contributions.
