About Present Tense

Present Tense is the platform where parents show up.

We built it because fatherhood and motherhood are not passive states. They require tools, skills, and community. And for parents navigating child welfare cases, the right program can mean the difference between reunification and permanent separation.

Our platform brings together the Fatherhood Engagement Hub, Motherhood Engagement Hub, Ahimsa Marketplace, Inkwell Publishing, and the Reading Room under one membership. Daddy's Chariot, our nonprofit arm, credentialing validates our curriculum for family court and child welfare use.

Our programs are court-accepted

Every skill track on Present Tense is designed for documented parent engagement. Parents receive progress records they can share with caseworkers, attorneys, and family court officials. Institutional buyers receive outcome reporting dashboards built for quarterly filings.

Free access for parents who need it

Unemployed and income-verified low-income parents access the full platform at no cost during the enrollment period. Showing up for your kids should not depend on what you can afford this month.

Based in Fort Myers, FL. Built for the world.
