in Array

The National Center on Fathering has released a report entitled, "Fathers’ Involvement in Children’s Learning"--a study that provides key findings from a survey of the impact that fathers have on their children's learning.

The National Center for Fathering (NCF) and the National Parent Teacher Association (PTA) have partnered together to assess the degree of involvement and support that fathers provide to their school-age children.  
 
The findings of this survey expand upon a similar survey originally conducted in 1999, providing an assessment of the changes in father engagement over the last ten years. Both sets of data were collected through a single-stage, random dial, national phone survey of 1,000 individuals ages 18 and over.
