diamond dads

​Our Diamond Dads program is designed to celebrate fathers and the role they play in the lives of their daughters.  Though special Diamond Dad Discussions and unique Father & Daughter events, the goal is to equip fathers to meet the growing needs of their girls while building memories that last a lifetime.

  • Girls whose fathers provide warmth and control achieve higher academic success.
  • Daughters who perceive that their fathers care a lot about them, who feel connected to their fathers, have significantly fewer suicide attempts and fewer instances of body dissatisfaction, depression, low self-esteem, substance use, and unhealthy weight.
  • A daughter's self-esteem is best predicted by her father's physical affection.
  • Girls with a father figure feel more protected, have higher self-esteem, are more likely to attempt college, and are less likely to drop out of college.
  • Girls with fathers who are involved in their lives have higher quantitative and verbal skills and higher intellectual functioning.
  • Girls with good fathers are less likely to flaunt themselves to seek male attention.
