Prof. Patterson passed along this call for gay dads to participate in an online study about our lives and families. If you qualify for this study, then please consider participating. Studies such as this one are an important means of gaining support in the psychology and social work communities, who can be powerful allies in the cause of GLBT parenting. Further, each new study adds to the body of factual evidence available to us when advocating for our families.

Are you a gay/bisexual dad? Would you be willing too answer some confidential online questions about your life and about your family?

The study consists of an online survey and will take approximately 25 – 35 minutes of your time. To qualify for the study you have to identify as male, a father, and gay, bisexual or homosexual and have at least one child of any age; this child can be biological, adopted, foster, step, or other child. You do not need to be the child’s legal parent to participate.

If you and/or your partner are interested in participating or want further information please contact Samantha L. Tornello at GayDadsStudy@gmail.com for more information.
