Welcome to the National Responsible Fatherhood Clearinghouse!
The National Responsible Fatherhood Clearinghouse (NRFC) supports the Administration for Children and Families' Office of Family Assistance's (OFA) efforts to assist States and communities to promote and support Responsible Fatherhood and Healthy Marriage.
Primarily a tool for professionals operating Responsible Fatherhood programs, the NRFC provides access to print and electronic publications, timely information on fatherhood issues, and targeted resources that support OFA-funded Responsible Fatherhood and Healthy Marriage grantees. The NRFC Web site also provides essential information for other audiences interested in fatherhood issues.
Feel free to take a look around the NRFC Website by looking on the left for resources relevant to who you are or in the "Topics and Tools" section in the lower left for information relevant to a specific subject.
Don't forget to search our online library for information on Responsible Fatherhood from statistical profiles, to program evaluations, to tips for how to be a better father.
There is also an NRFC email newsletter that you can sign up for to receive free email updates on what is new on fatherhood.gov!
