Concern about teen parents has focused attention almost exclusively on teen mothers, resulting in little attention given teen fathers. Consequently, teen fathers are often neglected as potential resources for their children, as well as clients who have their own, usually unmet, needs. Volume 11(4) of The Prevention Researcher focuses exclusively on adolescent fathers. In this issue, we explore the risk factors related to teen fatherhood, learn about young fathers' involvement with their children, hear the voices of young African American fathers, and examine the perceived benefits of a parenting program for adolescent fathers.
