Press Release Summary = Esther Productions, Inc. launches Daughters' Circle, a
series of in school lectures, and Bridge Work, facilitated support groups for
daughters who grew up without their fathers, and daughters and daddies wishing to
reconcile after being absent from each other.



Press Release Body = Daughters' Circle features authors and other experts who grew
up without their fathers discussing the importance of daddies in girls' lives. Much
has been made about the importance of fathers to sons; but fathers are equally, if
not more, important to their daughters. Participant will learn why. Further, they
will have the opportunity to discuss their own relationships with their fathers and
what they believe fathers bring to their daughters' development into whole, healthy
women. They will discuss what happens when fathers go absent, and they will examine
the symptoms of the Fatherless Woman Syndrome. Daughters' Circle, part of the
Relationship Building and Outreach Project of The National Daughter-Daddy Reunion
Tour, seeks to arrest and prevent problems associated with father absence including
teen pregnancy, juvenile violence, and low academic achievement.

Bridge Work, offers daughters 13 and older and fathers, a safe place to discuss
issues related to absence. It also helps to guide them, using facilitators, through
the process of reconciliation when they choose to reunite. Often fathers wants to
reconnect with their daughters but don't know how. This yearlong series of monthly
meetings offers tools and strategies for effecting successful reunions.

Daughters' Circle and Bridge Work are free. School officials interested in having an
expert speak to their students and individuals interested in joining the support
group may call 202.232.0780 or 202.232.0781. Please visit us at
