The Fatherhood Library Check-Out Program provides fathers with free access to books that strengthen parenting skills, relationships, and personal growth. Rooted in SHIFT’s mission to improve community health through education and empowerment, this program supports men in becoming confident, engaged fathers and building stronger families across Tulsa.
The Fatherhood Library Check-Out Program, powered by Supporting Healthy Initiatives For Tulsa (SHIFT), is designed to equip fathers and father-figures with the knowledge, tools, and confidence needed to build strong, healthy families. This initiative directly supports SHIFT’s mission to promote health and wellness through education, advocacy, and community collaboration.
Through access to a curated collection of books focused on parenting, co-parenting, child development, and personal growth, the program fosters continuous learning and self-improvement among fathers in our community. By removing barriers to educational resources, we empower men to make informed decisions, strengthen relationships with their children, and contribute to healthier family outcomes.
This program reflects SHIFT’s commitment to addressing disparities and supporting under-resourced individuals by providing practical, accessible tools that encourage positive behavior change and long-term stability.
Aligned with the SHIFT Fatherhood Program’s vision, the library serves as a supportive extension of services that help men embrace their roles as engaged, responsible fathers. It complements existing programming by reinforcing parenting skills, promoting emotional well-being, and encouraging lifelong learning beyond structured sessions.
Ultimately, the Fatherhood Library Check-Out Program contributes to building stronger families and more resilient communities by empowering fathers to be present, informed, and actively involved in their children’s lives—creating a lasting, generational impact across Tulsa.
