The philosophy
CULTURE CHANGE
STARTS WITH PEOPLE
Programs and policies struggle to last without changes in how people think, act and trust each other.
"The first 7 becomes the next 70."
A rallying cry for the early years. The Theory of Sevens behind it is still in development.

HOW THE WORK IS ORGANIZED
ONE FATHER FIGURE
Our visitors see one brand. Behind it, two organizations do different jobs.
Father Figure
The shared philosophy and front door
Father Figure Institute
Speaking, training, consulting and publishing. Home of The Conflict Compass.
Father Figure Foundation
Nonprofit support for engaged fathers, strong families and healthy early childhoods.
Partner work
Supporting Father Involvement is an NC Cooperative Extension program that Jamon directs. It is not a Father Figure program.
