The Global Fathers United Virtual Summit taking place Saturday, June 7th aims to bring together fathers, advocates and stakeholders to explore ways to strengthen and support fathers in Colorado and across the world.

Father’s Day is around the corner and the team at one Colorado-based organization has set its sights on getting fathers in the Centennial state to join others from around the world to “ignite healing, connection, and transformation.” Dwayne Meeks, a metro Denver-based nationally recognized fatherhood consultant and educator, spoke with Colorado Matters host Chandra Thomas Whitfield about the Global Fathers United Virtual Summit taking place Saturday, June 7, that will bring together fathers, advocates and stakeholders to explore ways to strengthen and support fathers across the globe.
