The Dad Allies Initiative established a series of responsive community, provider, and dad focused events to build Washington state’s father-friendly capacity to support dads to become the fathers their children and families need them to be. These knowledge and skill building sessions with state and national presenters are held to strengthen our provider network to effectively engage and support fathers and father-figures.
Upcoming Events
