New Dadsof Avondale
Fatherhood is better together.
New Dads of Avondale is a free neighborhood community for dads and father figures with young children.
New Dads of Avondale exists to make fatherhood less isolated and our neighborhood more connected. We bring dads and father figures together to build real friendships, create meaningful experiences with their children, share what they know, support one another, and contribute to the community their families call home.
