City Dads Group continues to grow across the United States with Charlotte, N.C., opening our 19th outpost recently while our ranks reached the 5,000-member mark nationally.

City Dads Group has expanded steadily since first expanding beyond the borders of its flagship New York City location in 2014. In less than two years, our group has added more than 3,700 dads and 18 major metropolitan markets.

The new Charlotte Dads Group will be overseen by Darrell Humphrey, a father of two boys Ethan and Owen, and husband to wife, Meredith. A stay-at-home parent for three years, he has been involved getting know the vast array of dads in the Charlotte area for several months as part of his work. In his spare time, Darrell loves woodworking, making beer, and being outside with the family.

“Darrell has gotten off to a great start as he creates a community of dads in Charlotte. The city is growing fast, and we hope to be a great resource for local dads of all stripes,” said Matt Schneider, co-founder of City Dads Group.

City Dads Group is a dynamic and diverse community of fathers redefining, by example, what it means to be a dad in the 21st century. The year-old organization has group based in and around 19 major metropolitan U.S. cities including New York, Chicago, Los Angeles, Cleveland, Dallas and San Francisco.

Founded in November 2008 in New York City as a way a handful of fathers could arrange playdates and outings with their children, the organization went national in 2014. City Dads Group members who bond over their children and a desire to change the face of modern fatherhood through word, deed, and example.

    Hello, my name is Madelyn Brown and I am a nursing student at the Cabarrus College of Health Sciences. I am working with GATE Pregnancy Resource Center to completing a project on mental and physical health resources for parents, & I am interested in learning more about the services you offer to the community. I am hoping to help develop a resource list to display information about your organization and its services to the public.

    If you’re interested in having your organization represented, I can ask you some questions or send you an email with the assessment/information form to complete and send back to me by Friday.

    Please let me know if you have any questions.

    Madelyn
