AFC works to build alliances of community and faith-based leaders and organizations to mobilize resources and experience for family and community renewal.  By coalescing in common cause beyond typical religious and racial boundaries, synergy is created that enables all to be more effective in addressing family and community needs.

Leadership Training

AFC sponsors educational conferences and symposia addressing the root causes of marriage and family breakdown.  Through its American Leadership Conferences, AFC has reached a broad and diverse cross-section of leaders.  These conferences provide vision and promote consensus building, highlight best practices and model programs, and facilitate networking and communication.  In the last several years alone, AFC has sponsored more than 80 American Leadership Conferences reaching over 10,000 leaders.

Marriage and Family Education

AFC works with strategic partners in promoting and delivering marriage and family education and training.  Through such programs, AFC and its partner organizations provide valuable training in skills needed for strong marriages and stable and loving families.

National Parents' Day

In 1994, the US Congress established Parents' Day (the fourth Sunday of each July) as a national day of commemoration, recognizing the crucial role of parents in the raising of children.  AFC, through its National Parents' Day Council, plays a major role in promoting Parents' Day in virtually every state.  Parents' Day activities include honoring parental role models as "Parents of the Year", selected on the community, state and national levels.
