In March 2009, President Obama signed an Executive Order creating the White House Council on Women and Girls. “The purpose of this Council is to ensure that American women and girls are treated fairly in all matters of public policy,” said President Obama. Today, Dr. Warren Farrell is leading the charge of a new proposal, to create a Proposal For A White House Council On Men And Boys.
Glenn Barker, Dr. Marvin Thompson and Dr. Vibe spoke with Claire Thurston about the Proposal For A White House Council On Boys And Men and fatherhood.
Claire Thurston has been researching father’s role in child development for 25 years and she presents workshops at hospitals, schools and conferences. She is a regular “Dads and Families” columnist for the online magazine The Good Men Project, which receives over 3 million views per month. Recent articles include: What is the Dad Difference? and Historical Parenting: The Fathers of Nelson Mandela. Denver area probation departments piloted her protocol, the Paternal Empathy Program to prevent child abuse. In 2004 she was awarded the Presidential Management Fellowship and helped to develop The LEAD (Leadership Education and Development) Certificate Program for the Federal Government. She was a board member then staff member of Family Network, a non-profit for rebuilding intergenerational family support systems in San Francisco, California.
