Welcome to The Fatherless Generation Foundation Inc.

Where we reunite the fatherless and reconcile families

Why We Do What We Do?

1 out of 3 children grows up without their biological father in their home. Fatherlessness creates emotional, psychological, spiritual, and financial issues resulting in negative outcomes:

  • 20 times more likely to have a behavioral disorder

  • 5 times more likely to commit suicide

  • 32 times more likely to run away

  • 10 times more likely to abuse a chemical substance

  • 20 times more likely to end up in prison

The negative statistics around fatherlessness is our why?

TFGF reunites fatherless children with their biological fathers all while providing the resources and services that strengthen, support, and elevate a commitment to fatherhood and family values.
Our efforts go beyond talking about the statistics of fatherlessness to being a solution to a generational problem through our programs and services crafted to reunite fatherless children and their fathers and supporting fathers through their journey to building positive relationships with their children. TFGF uses an out of the box holistic method of providing legal, psychological, and emotional support to absent fathers who desire to become active.

Our Testimonial

  • “The Fatherless Generation Foundation Inc. Created a space of hope for me and my child custody case. Dr. Torri and her passion to develop an organization to support the livileyhood of fathers is overwhelming God centered. The organization supported me by directing me to the best qualified attorneys available. And because family law cases can be very expensive, the organization took there responsibility one step further by negotiating terms to decrease the cost of representation. I was thrilled at the dedication, determination, dependence the organization provided in my custody battle. I was most thankful for the additional financial support the company provided. The company provided 3,000 of financial support on the behalf of my case. Not only have i found a pathway to hope in my case, but also ive developed a network of support through this organization. Thanks Dr. Torri for leading and helping me towards redemption, and reuniting me with my daughter.”

  • “I want to Express my gratitude to you Dr. Barton and The Fatherless Generation Foundation for all you have done for me and my son. Even before I had a case you let me know what I needed to do and what you could do for me. You have worked very diligent and remained determined through out my case and even after the verdict you still impact our lives in a positive way. Thanks to you my son is legitimized and I have custody and rights that I and every other Great Father deserve to have granted to them. Everything from court dates to mediation, you stood by my side. I’m forever grateful for the services you provide and I thank you Dr. Barton.”

  • “I really love this foundation!!!! It has helped me in more than one way. I was on the other end when I got contacted by the foundation my son father was trying to get rights to our son. Me being a over protective mother I thought I was being attacked. But after meeting with Dr.Barton and having conversations with her I realized the program was here to help us both. And now my son father and I have the best co-parenting relationship I thought we would never in life get too!!! I also can call Dr.Barton anytime if I’m going thru something’s. And the greatest part I love about this foundation is they have therapists that can help both parents and the child to cope with any issues you all have together or individually!!! This foundation has given us a great foundation to stand and build on as parents!!! It’s helped me change in so many ways!!!!”
