Otherfathering and Black men's mental health: A primer for counselors

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

No counseling research exists about how otherfathering affects Black men's wellness. Black otherfathering has been primarily studied in schools as one of many expectations for Black male teachers. A review of research about the relationship between fathering, otherfathering, and mental health in Black men is presented and concludes with a rationale for more research about Black otherfathering as a potential protective factor for Black men's mental health.
