Involved Fathers play with their children
Play is one of the best ways dads can connect with their children.
Involved Fathers show love and affection.
Regardless of the age a child is, he is longing for his dad to show him affection. Hugs, kisses, saying "I love you" everyday gives a child assurance that he is valuable to his dad.
Involved Fathers help their children learn.
Children learn from watching you, from listening to you, and from trying new things. So Dad, whether it is around the home, in a park, or helping with school work, remember that you are a significant teacher for your child.
Involved Fathers build lasting relationships.
Being a father never ends. You are a dad for a lifetime. Your influence helps guide your child's choices and build trust between you both.
Involved Fathers connect earlier than ever.
Being a father starts from the moment you know the baby is coming. Those first few months before and after the birth can give you an incredible start in connecting with your child.

Welcome to the Father Involvement Initiative - Ontario Network.
Fathers play a vital role in the healthy development of children. Amazing things happen to kids, to moms, to the community, and to dads, when men give their time, attention, and focus to the children they are raising.
FII-ON encourages the responsible involvement of fathers, grandfathers, uncles, brothers, and any other man who is influencing a child.
We invite you to check out our 3 main portals:
| I'm a Dad... | I'm an Organization... | Resources... |
We have useful tips, information, resources, and downloadable booklets for dads, for moms, for organizations, for communities, and for anyone interested in learning more about father involvement and the many benefits to the health and well-being of children, of fathers, of mothers, of families, of communities and of the world that we live in!
We invite you to search out what is happening in local communities across Ontario. See who’s involved, what we are all about, and how we plan to get there. Look into Our resources, and find out what is happening within various communities.
There is even a section that describes various Training Opportunities that FII-ON can provide to employees, organizations, agencies, companies, and communities. The various trainings have been carried out locally, provincially, nationally, and even internationally.
Donations and Support. If you are able to contribute, our organization can provide a charitable receipt for your donation. Your help makes a difference.
