HELPFUL RESOURCES
City Dads Group is a great resource for media outlets, businesses and brands wanting insight from real 21st century fathers on what appeals to modern parents and families.
We have experience speaking in the national spotlight, supporting marketing campaigns, and getting the word out to fathers and those who love and support them.
Please send media, advertising and sponsorship inquiries through our Contact page.
WHO WE ARE
City Dads Group is a dynamic, diverse community of parents who defy the “doofus dad” stereotype. Our members actively participate in the upbringing of their children, from the first diaper changes onward.
We don’t believe in “woman’s work” or “dad duties” – only “parenting.” We are committed to succeeding at it for our children’s sake.
We are:
- at-home and working dads
- straight and gay dads
- married, divorced and single dads
- white, black and every-other-color-of-the-rainbow dads
- young and young-at-heart dads
Unlike many online parenting communities, we are not just virtual. We have a hands-on membership that regularly takes part in group activities – true “boots on the ground” – in several major U.S. metropolitan areas.
