NAFFA works to educate and inspire parents in over 350 Native American tribes and agencies across the country and now Canada. Starting in 2001, founder Albert Pooley developed a curriculum, called Fatherhood is Sacred®, specifically designed to teach Native American fathers to be responsible parents. Since then, the program has expanded to include Motherhood is Sacred®, Linking Generations by Strengthening Relationships® and Addressing Family Violence and Abuse© and Suicide Prevention© programs. We have also expanded to all non-Native communities Mission: To strengthen, keep, and reunite families by responsibly involving fathers and mothers in the lives of their children, families, and communities to provide happy and safe families.
