Draws on data with young fathers and multi-agency professionals, the article highlights the social welfare contexts where men as-fathers experience exclusion, as well as how the language of father-inclusion might be mobilised for progressive and systemic institutional and societal change

The article explores systemic exclusions of men as-fathers and caregivers by services and institutions, introducing the concept of father-inclusion as a sensitising concept and framing strategy with transformative potential across diverse social welfare contexts.

Our main finding? We need to change society. We need to invest in welfare services, not cut them, we need to explore ways to make work in schools and other social and statutory support services more attractive to men

Of course boys and men need male role models but what kinds of masculinities they model is key here. Is it caring masculinities, military masculinities, which ones? Masculinities are dynamic, complex and context dependent.

The study responded to crisis of masculinity narratives that had emerged again then and the problem when male role models are positioned as solutions to otherwise highly complex socio-economic and historically embedded issues.
