Dear reader,

Every Mother’s and Father’s Day, Americans celebrate something irreplaceable: parents who love their children and each other.

But no one wants to admit that this kind of loving family is in crisis, marked by falling marriage rates, absent parents, and rising loneliness.

At the Institute for Family Studies, we tackle these trends directly with original research and strong advocacy. Because you engage with our work, we know you care about these issues.

Today, we are inviting you to help make this possible. For our 2026 Mothers and Fathers Appeal, we are raising $25,000 by Father’s Day (June 21).

Will you make your first tax-deductible gift today?
