F&F: Fathers and Families Welcomes New Leadership

Article here. Excerpt:

'It is with equal measures of regret and optimism that I announce Glenn Sacks’ decision to resign his post as Executive Director of Fathers and Families. Fathers and Families grew faster during the past three years under Glenn’s leadership than it has at any point since I helped found it 14 years ago. To my personal regret, Glenn has decided to move on. (see Glenn’s statement below).

Beginning five years ago, I sat with Glenn and his family in his California back yard, trying to cajole him into joining Fathers and Families. I knew I was talking to a special talent. As a journalist and blogger, Glenn had amassed the biggest audience in the world on gender-related issues as seen from the male point of view, including reform of the family courts. He wrote and spoke with precision, a solid grasp of the facts, balance, and with respect for both men and women.

I also approach this transition with optimism. The Board of Directors has appointed Rita Fuerst Adams as our new Executive Director. Rita has been an invaluable behind-the-scenes advisor to Fathers and Families since 2003. She knows our operations, personnel, and issues backwards and forwards. She has already proven herself a hard-driving, tireless leader, a relentless organizer, and an inspiring motivator. Now she makes the transition to Executive Director.

When asked why she accepted the position as ExecutiveDirector, Rita responded, “I believe Fathers and Families is poised to bring about fundamental social change. We are opening doors with our simple message of shared parenting and gender equality, with equal rights and responsibilities for fathers and mothers. We will make this the norm and the expectation in every state. I believe anything less penalizes innocent children.”'
