#Dadication
Parents and families are facing new challenges, but one thing hasn’t changed: the importance of dads being involved in their children’s lives. The NRFC is proud to release a series of new Public Service Announcements (PSAs) that encourage fathers to show their “#Dadication” by making time for their kids, even when parenting isn’t easy.
Check out the featured #Dadication video above which, depicts the many ways that a father named Harold is dedicated to showing up everyday for his children.
View the other videos and learn more about the #Dadication PSAs by visiting the #Dadication Page.

Funding
Funding for the NRFC is provided through the Deficit Reduction Act of 2005, which authorized the use of funds for “the development, promotion, and distribution of a media campaign to encourage the appropriate involvement of parents in the life of any child and specifically the issue of responsible fatherhood, and the development of a national clearinghouse to assist States and communities in efforts to promote and support marriage and responsible fatherhood.” The NRFC has provided these services since October 2006 and the Claims Resolution Act (CRA) re-authorized funding in 2010.
