“Behind every statistic of an absent father is a dad who aches to be there a father who longs to connect despite barriers. At Fathers’ UpLift, we call this powerful longing ‘Father Wantobeism.’ It’s the quiet truth that most absent fathers are not distant by choice, but driven away by circumstance. Our work helps dads overcome these barriers, transforming longing into presence, and absence into active connection.”

In his debut book, PRESENT, Dr. Charles Daniels unpacks the healing power of presence what it means, what it requires, and how it transforms families. Through deeply personal stories and a call to redefine fatherhood, Dr. Daniels invites us to recognize that showing up—emotionally, spiritually, and physically is not just a responsibility, but a revolution. As Fathers’ UpLift walks with men returning to their families and communities, this book becomes a national beacon of hope.
