OHMAN is excited to share our Social Media Campaign: Know Better. Do Better. Be Better. Geared toward creating and supporting communities where all people can live ‘Free of Violence’ within their relationships, and share their commitment to respect, safety, and equality.

 

 

Part of OHMAN’s statewide social media strategy, ‘Know Better. Do Better.

Additionally, our friends and partners in the Fatherhood community; the Ohio Commission on Fatherhood (OCF), the Ohio Practitioners Network for Fathers and Families (OPNFF), and Action for Children’s ‘Father Up‘ program, have partnered with OHMAN to enhance the well-being of Ohio’s children by providing opportunities for fathers to become better parents, partners and providers.  OHAMN will be working w/ programs throughout the State to explore how healthy masculinity and gender norms can empower the role of Fathers in our communities.
