Organization Conducting the Survey: The Prichard Committee for Academic Excellence
Purpose of the Survey
You are invited to participate in a survey as part of the Fathers That Lead project organized by the Prichard Committee, and sponsored by the Commonwealth Center for Fathers and Families. The purpose of this survey is to learn about how dads and other father figures are involved in children’s education, what helps or gets in the way, and what kinds of information, support, and opportunities would be most useful. Your feedback will help Fathers That Lead better understand what fathers and father figures need and plan activities, resources, and ways to get involved that reflect those needs and interests.
