About Fathers 4 Justice South Africa

We are a civil rights group campaigning for truth, justice and equality in Family Law for children, their parents and grandparents. Children growing up without fathers, is an obscenity and social catastrophe waiting to happen. We support a child’s right to see both parents after separation and demand an end to the systematic removal of one parent (mostly fathers and their families) by the Courts, for no good reason. Children need both parents.

We demand the automatic rights to enjoy a meaningful, loving relationship with our children and grandchildren in accordance with the new Children’s Act, 2005. Shared Parenting must become the normal form of order issued in the Family Courts. All parents should be assumed to be fit, loving, caring parents unless conclusively proven otherwise.

We advocate the removal of all prejudice against fathers to be replaced by a fair, just and transparent system of justice based on the principle of equal parenting and our rights to family life enshrined in the Constitution.

Seeking to expose injustices carried out in secret in the Family Advocate Offices and Family Courts, and bring them to the attention of the public.

Challenging the gender bias inherent in the family law system against fathers that results in them paying for children they are not allowed to see, homes they are not allowed to go to, and schools they are not allowed to visit, whilst resident parents (mostly mothers) widely abuse this gender bias to deny the non-resident parent (mostly fathers) access to their own children for no good reason.

We support research into the cost to society – a legacy of crime, drug abuse, social decay and suicide left in the wake of generations of children growing up denied access to their fathers, and the effects on fathers of being dispossessed of their children.

Our Aim:

  • To remove gender-based bias within South Africa’s family law system.
  • Promote the rights of children within South Africa’s family law system.
  • Promote a family’s right to enjoy a meaningful, loving relationship with each other.
  • Establishing a more just post-divorce environment, in the best interest of our children.

To this end, and in the face of an intransigent judiciary, a morally bankrupt system and complacent government, we believe in non-violent direct action against ALL areas of the Family Law system to raise awareness and combat Family Law Injustice.

Not everyone can afford getting the right help. Not having access to your child because of your financial status is heartbreaking. It is through the generous support of fellow fathers and mothers, that our team is able to help those less fortunate.

Any amount helps.
