About This Product
Fathers play a critical, yet often overlooked, role in the early education of their children. Author Jawan Burwell, EdD, addresses the barriers that prevent many fathers, particularly Black and other fathers of color, from participating fully in early childhood programs. Drawing on research and the author's direct experience, this book provides educators with actionable strategies to create more inclusive classrooms and foster authentic partnerships with fathers. With a focus on practical implementation, Burwell highlights the importance of understanding family dynamics, challenging societal assumptions, and reshaping engagement practices to reach all caregivers.
