💡 Empowering Fathers Through Digital Storytelling: The Stronger Families Campaign


In the heart of Western Australia, Stronger Families embarked on a mission: to support fathers in building healthier relationships with their children. Their 17-week Caring Dads program aims to break cycles of domestic violence and foster genuine connections within families.

🎯 The Challenge

Reaching fathers who might be hesitant to seek help requires more than just traditional outreach. The goal was to create a digital campaign that resonated emotionally, encouraging dads to take the first step toward transformation.

🧠 The Strategy

  1. Authentic Storytelling: We crafted narratives that spoke directly to fathers, acknowledging their struggles and highlighting the positive impact of change.​

  2. Visual Engagement: Utilizing vibrant images—like a father joyfully playing with his child in a sunlit park—helped convey warmth and hope.​

  3. Targeted Social Media: Facebook campaigns were tailored to reach men aged 25–50 in Perth, Peel, and the South West, using relatable language and emojis to enhance engagement.​

  4. Clear Call-to-Action: Each post directed readers to www.strongerfamilies.com.au, making it easy to learn more and sign up.​

📈 The Results

  • Increased Engagement: The campaign saw a significant uptick in website visits and program sign-ups.​

  • Community Building: Fathers began sharing their stories, creating a supportive online community.​

  • Positive Feedback: Participants reported feeling more connected and empowered in their parenting roles.​
