Gay dads in Boston unite. Outreach for fathers offers discussions, activites, and brotherhood.

There’s a network of gay men in Boston who have children. Some are divorced, some separated, and some still married. Some are in committed relationships with other men – and some are single. And everyone has kids!

The group meets on the 1st and 3rd Tuesday of each month at the First Parish Church in Waltham from 7-9 pm.

The meetings provide a safe, confidential, and welcoming forum for talking about the issues of gay fatherhood, including parenting, coming out, sexuality, and relationships with children, partners, and spouses (current or ex). You are free to join in the discussion or just observe, whatever feels most comfortable. Some of the meetings also include speakers on topics of interest for a portion of the meeting.

Social events include potluck dinners each month at the homes of members, a Provincetown weekend, a December holiday party, group participation in the Boston Gay Pride Parade, and an annual banquet. The group also organizes events for fathers and children such as roller skating parties, museum trips, and summer outings.
