THE TOOLBOX TO EMPOWER GAY FATHERS HOSTED BY MARYANNE TRANTER
Reality is that no one could have predicted what the year 2020 was going to look like. Lives have changed and you may have huge disappointments and sadness in your heart. Families regardless if traditional or modern, may even feel more unsure and isolated. The truth is, as much as disappointment may be in you, what the year 2020 has brought us can in actual fact, be exactly what we need.
There is a huge opportunity to create support, connections, and community more beautiful than you could have ever imagined if you are able to see the opportunities that are all around us. Some of these include our ability to connect and share virtually.

She had been working with some gay fathers who were hungry for information and connection which led her to put together an Interview Series with over 16 parenting experts and fathers. It’s called: Toolbox To Empower Gay Fathers: Building Confidence, Community and Peace.
We’re very grateful that Darren and I, as TwoDadsAndAKid were selected to be part of this series of interviews with other gay dads across the globe.
I hope that these tools and interviews will be deeply nourishing for parents, especially gay dads at this time.
