Celebrating Women Who Support Fatherhood

Strong women shape strong families. From trailblazers in education and activism to the mothers, grandmothers, and mentors who help guide us and our children daily—women have always played an important role in parenting, child development, and family support. 


This Women’s History Month, we honor the women who inspire, nurture, and lead by example. Whether it’s through their wisdom, encouragement, or support, their influence helps shape fathers into the best versions of themselves. 


Uplifting the Women in Our Lives 

As we celebrate the women who impact our families, let’s also make sure we are supporting them. One way to do this is by sharing resources designed to empower and uplift mothers. Encourage the women in your life to explore our Mothers Matter cohort sessions, where they can find community, education, and support. Learn more here. 


Be a Role Model of Respect 

Honoring women goes beyond words. It’s about showing respect in our daily interactions. Here’s how you can set an example: 

  • Use language that uplifts rather than devalues women. 

  • Teach children about respect by showing kindness and equality in your actions. 

  • Challenge harmful stereotypes and behaviors that make relationship violence seem acceptable. 


Let’s use this month as a reminder to celebrate, support, and uplift the women who strengthen our families and communities.
