JOINING US IS EASY

Becoming a member is easy. Simply pay the $20 lifetime membership fee, and you're in! 

      We are a 501c3 and receive no funding from any government source. We are all volunteers. 

     Your membership will keep our website up, so we continue to help separated parents establish custody and placement with their children after separation or paternity.  

     The funding from membership also makes it possible for WFCF to provide educational materials to our legislators in WI on the significant benefits to everyone with increasing shared parenting.  

      Children, parents, taxpayers, and family courts all benefit greatly from shared parenting.

Join and Get Involved

Suppose you believe too many children ONLY have one involved parent in their lives and that both parents should be allowed and expected to support their children emotionally and financially. In that case, we need each other to improve things for you, your children, and other families.  HALF of the children in WI with separated parents struggle due to only one parent being significantly involved in their upbringing.

By working together as a group and sharing resources, we can be more effective in bringing about change than individuals working alone.

Help promote awareness of WFCF

Our group has been around for over 30 years and has hosted our Separated Parents Night Out in 10 locations monthly.  We also provide  Community Outreach and Networking. We have a free helpline that has provided individual help to almost 2000 parents over the last 5 years.  Unfortunately, many people may need our resources or want to help but do not know about us. We need to get the word out about us and our website. To help with this, you can download our FNO poster here,  print it out and post it in your place of work or community billboard.  If you are close to one of our meeting locations and would like us to provide you with posters/flyers specifically advertising that location, don't hesitate to contact us at:  initiatives@wisconsinfathers.org.

Let your voice be heard

We encourage you to share your experiences, not only with other parents in our group who have experienced similar problems but also with those people who can bring about change. Thus, in addition to joining our group, we urge you to contact your legislator to explain what you think is wrong and ask them to work to fix our laws to make things right."  They are the ones who can change the laws that the courts enforce.  Contact your legislator!
