Father absence affects millions of children across the country. In fact, 17.6 million kids—nearly 1 in 4—grow up without a biological, step, or adoptive father at home.
This experience can shape a girl’s emotional, mental, and financial well-being in lasting ways.
Research shows that children in father-absent homes are more likely to experience:
A greater risk of poverty
Behavioral or emotional challenges
Higher likelihood of teen pregnancy
Increased risk of abuse or neglect
Higher rates of drug or alcohol use
More challenges with school engagement or dropping out
A higher chance of obesity
Increased involvement with the justice system
These statistics don’t define a girl’s future — but they do highlight why support, guidance, and community matter.
At From Fatherless to Fearless®, we walk alongside girls experiencing father absence so they can rewrite their stories with confidence, healing, and hope.
To empower and equip girls with strained or absent father relationships on their journey to healing and wholeness.
To become fatherless women’s most trusted resource.
We predominately serve teen girls ages 13-18 (and some young women) and their families; however, we focus on the underserved community. Whether their father has walked away, passed away, is in jail, or is emotionally unavailable living in the same house, our core is to serve fatherless girls.
