Founded in 2002 Native American Fatherhood and Families Association (NAFFA) is an Arizona based non-profit 501 (C) (3) organization. Founder Albert M. Pooley, developed two different curriculums, Fatherhood is Sacred® and Motherhood Is Sacred(TM) and Linking Generations By Strengthening Relationships. Both have been well received by Native Americans across the United States and the First Nations in Canada (170+ tribes) in strengthening families and personal relationships.
Mission Statement: To strengthen families by responsibly involving fathers in the lives of their children, families and communities and partnering with mothers to provide happy and safe families.
NAFFA's Values: Building strong family bonds, responsible fathers and mothers, integrity and leaders for tomorrow.
