In this week's episode we talk with Tim McConville, The Director of Strategic Engagement for Man Up, an organization on a mission to end fatherlessness in the United States and across the globe.
In 1950, only 1 in 20 children was born to an unmarried mother. Today, 1 in 4 are growing up fatherless in the United States. In fact, more children are growing up fatherless in the United States than in any other country.
Fatherlessness accounts for nearly every possible negative childhood outcome, from poor educational performance to behavioral and mental health disorders to teen pregnancy and suicide.
We talk to Tim about his recruiting story and how he landed in the role he is in, why it is important to him, and how others can get involved if they are interested.
