Alive on Purpose Presents: Father & Daughter Dance a Black Tie Affair

CLEVELAND, Ohio, August 4, 2017 (Newswire.com) - The Father & Daughter Dance is a memorable experience for Fathers and their Daughters of all ages. The Him & Me Dance was created to bring fathers and daughters together and strengthen their relationship by reducing negative occurrences in the lives of young women. An estimate of 24 percent of young women live absent their biological fathers. The Him and Me Dance aims to show the importance of a father's impact on their daughter's self-esteem thus reducing suicide and other negative effects in young women.

500+ Primarily African American Fathers & Daughters will attend.

This dance provides the systems necessary for fathers to develop stronger relationships with their daughters. Additionally, this dance provides a forum for conversation, interaction and parental development. Him and Me is designed to cultivate this relationship between fathers and daughters by teaching both the father and the daughter communication methods, financial literacy, safety and parental involvement. Each component is geared to encourage affirmation and conflict resolution between fathers and daughters. By reinforcing communication and personal responsibility, fathers become models for the community having long-term impact on young women and reducing suicide.

The Father & Daughter Dance is in its fifth year and is being held at Landerhaven in Lyndhurst, Ohio on Sunday, Aug. 6, 2017, from 4 p.m. - 9 p.m. Tickets for the event are sold out.
