Endorsements:
ACFC is pleased to endorse the work of its Michigan affiliate, DADS of Michigan, in organizing the Families and Fathers Conference 2005, subtitled "Healing Our Families ~ A Time For Change." It will be held June 17 & 18 in Detroit, Michigan.
This conference features an outstanding group of national speakers and promises to be a strong catalyst for advocacy and family law reform. ACFC President Stephen Baskerville will speak to the full conference and participate in panel discussions, and ACFC Executive Director Mike McCormick and Chairman Dave Roberts will also be available to discuss national and local strategy and organization-building techniques.
"This conference could help turn events this year in our effort to restore the family," said Baskerville. "I wholeheartedly urge our ACFC chapter leaders and members to attend and participate in this conference."
A string of seriously flawed policy measures in Michigan has shown that state to be an important battle ground in the struggle for justice in family law. We are particularly pleased that our local ACFC affiliate - DADS of Michigan - has partnered with the Family Rights Coalition of Michigan, Fathers for Equal Rights of America, and Citizens for Parental Rights in co-sponsoring this conference. In a unified action that should be emulated nationwide, all of the local Michigan advocacy groups have banded together to host this well planned and well managed conference.
"We hope to see you there."
- Stephen Baskerville, President, ACFC
- Mike McCormick, Executive Director, ACFC
- David A. Roberts, Chairman, ACFC

If you want to see a real change in the divorce industry, then the is the conference for you to attend. This is the right conferenece, with the right speakers and the right topics at the right time. It will take all of us to make meaningful difference, so I hope to see you in Michigan in June. I will not miss it.”

"Today's catastrophic divorce rate accompanied by the government's and judiciary's policies to destroy families and alienate fathers from their children and impoverishing them has brought America to the point where our civilization is at risk. The Michigan conference will bring together concerned parents, advocates, experts and professionals in an attempt to outline the problems faced by today's families and formulate solutions and action plans. This conference might be turning point in our family law reform efforts and I wholeheartedly encourage you to attend and participate."
- Mark Klein, M.D., Board Certified Psychiatrist, Oakland, CA
"American families are needlessly suffering because family law is outdated, lacking uniformity and out of step with the realities of modern society and family life. This conference represents a new horizon in the changing landscape of America's divorce culture. The knowledge gained at this conference will help to promote a healing for parents, children and families across America. Please join concerned Americans from across the Nation in the Motor City for the Families and Fathers conference subtitled Healing our Families - A Time for Change."

The upcoming Families and Fathers conference offers an excellent opportunity to network and communicate with leading activists and advocates. I strongly encourage you to attend."

"Many Non-Custodial parents feel helpless in their quest to be a parent and share time with their kids. Some give up and say what can I do? To this I quote Edmund Burke - 'Nobody made a greater mistake than he who did nothing because he could only do a little.' On June 17 and 18th in Detroit at the Families and Fathers Conference, there is a chance to do what you can, learn what you need to know and find answers. Don't make the mistake of doing nothing. Be there."
"Family disruptions and societal violence are related in a vicious cycle. A high prevalence of single-parent households because of unwed births and divorce in our communities is directly associated with high rates of violence and crime. Breaking this cycle by restoring effective dual-parent involvement with our children of all races is the greatest societal challenge our nation faces in the 21st century. Please join me in Detroit in exploring solutions to this cycle of problems and contributing to a national dialog of reform."
