EP127: Justin Trottier - Empowering Boys, Men & Families In Crisis

"The only fathering programs were ones that presumed fathers were basically bad, abusive men. Why aren't there fathering programs that are there for good, decent men who want to stay engaged and want to step up and do even better for their kids?"

Among all the crisis shelters established in Canada, only one is for men. Despite the overwhelming message that suggests women are the main victims of domestic abuse, mostly coming mainstream media, the statistics for the number of men who are victims of domestic abuse are just as significant. But the support systems and laws surrounding domestic abuse heavily favor women, creating a barrier that's hard for men to break through when they, and often their children, need it most.

Justin Trottier is the executive director of the Canadian Center For Men And Families (CCMF). He realized that men need organizations they can turn to in times of crisis so he, with some friends and colleagues, stepped up to fill the void. They created the CCMF as a hub for boys, men, fathers and families that fills critical gaps in men's services. Their vision is to reduce male suicide, empower and advocate for men before, during and after a crisis, empower fathers undergoing separation and divorce, and help men heal from trauma.

CCMF has a podcast called Perspectives On Men.
