Focus on Fatherhood: Beyond Drama to Effective Parenting

There is a "Father Factor" in our Nations's Worst Social Problems.
According to the U.S. Census Bureau, 24 million children in America--one out of every three--live in biological father-absent homes. Nine in ten American parents agree this is a crisis. There is a "Father Factor" in nearly all of the social issues facing America today. Children with involved  fathers do better across every measure of well-being than children in father-absent homes. Join Carl West, and experts as they discuss the importance of fathers and explore solutions to brighten this dismal picture.
