There is a powerful new movement starting in Northwest Louisiana, and it’s built on a simple but life-changing idea: when fathers grow, families win.

Our friends at F.O.A.M. (Fathers On A Mission) are officially launching their first monthly Fatherhood Gathering, and if you are a dad in the Shreveport-Bossier area, you need to be in the room.

This isn’t just another meeting; it’s a space designed for honest conversation, personal growth, and creating a lasting impact on the next generation.

The inaugural session, “Fatherhood: The Life of a Father,” kicks off on Tuesday, May 12, 2026, at 6:30 PM. Dads at all stages of the journey, whether you’re a brand-new parent or a seasoned pro, are invited to Goodwill Industries at 800 W. 70th Street in Shreveport for this free event.

F.O.A.M. is all about real, relevant discussions. They’re diving deep into the questions that matter: What kind of father do you actually want to be? What has been missing from your journey so far? And most importantly, what support do you need to succeed?

Through guided conversation and shared experiences, you’ll have the chance to build a stronger foundation for yourself and your family. This event marks the beginning of an ongoing monthly series focused on accountability and community connection.

Ready to lead the way for your family? Reserve your seat today by calling 225-239-7833 or visiting FOAMLA.org. Let’s show up for our community, Shreveport!
