About the organization
The International Families and Fathers Conference, now in its 26th year, is a longstanding forum dedicated to advancing research, practice, and policy around fatherhood and family well-being. Founded to address the often-overlooked role of fathers in child development, the conference has grown into an interdisciplinary gathering that bridges social work, psychology, public health, and community advocacy. Its core mission is to foster evidence-based dialogue and collaboration among practitioners, researchers, and policymakers committed to strengthening families through engaged fatherhood.
Opportunities
2 listedApplication guidance
Prospective speakers should submit proposals that clearly articulate practical implications for fatherhood engagement, family services, or policy. Sessions that blend research with case studies or community-based interventions are especially welcome. Given the conference's applied focus, avoid overly theoretical or jargon-heavy abstracts; instead, highlight how your work can inform practice. Early submission is advised, as the program tends to fill with established presenters.
