Fathers Day Picnic and BBQ

Members and clients, including several families, joined us for our annual Fathers Day’s BBQ, and you’re going to love these touching videos as dads and their children tell us what Father’s Day means to them.

Word on the Street

Our public outreach day brought awareness of the importance of fatherhood and raised attention to the Canadian Centre for Men and Families and its programs. This year’s highlights included a dad running back to our table to grab a “He Can Do It!” button for his son, a single dad rendered homeless who, upon meeting us for the first time, put on one of our shirts and began passing out our literature, and a couple who appreciated our work so much that they insisted on a group photo (included below)!

York Pride Parade

Our best turnout yet and a beautiful day as we walked in the York Region Pride Parade, advertising our Rainbow Legal Support program for gay dads and GBTQ+ men. As it turned out, we were joined by some heavy hitters, as Ontario Premier Doug Ford and others from cabinet participated in the walk.
