WHO ARE MAD DADS?

MAD DADS is an acronym: Men Against Destruction-Defending Against Drugs and Social-Disorder. MAD DADS, INC. was founded in May of 1989 by a group of concerned Omaha, Nebraska parents who were fed up with gang violence and the unmolested flow of illegal drugs in our community. MAD DADS activities are designed to promote and demonstrate positive images of fathers engaging in community development and the protection of youth and families.

Mission:

To bring about positive change; to seek-out, encourage, motivate and guide committed men and women in the struggle to save children, communities and themselves from the social inequities that fester in and plague many neighborhoods, but predominantly minority neighborhoods. 

To accomplish this worthy ongoing mission, MAD DADS is committed to     developing and implementing strategies to partner with and support parents in the intervention and prevention of community challenges; to attract, challenge and prepare them to be vocal, visible and vigilant in restoring safe communities and cohesive families.
