In December 2000, the Governor formed the Governor's Fatherhood Advisory Council (Executive Order 01.01.2000.24).

Annually, the Council convened statewide and regional conferences to devise strategies and identify resources with which to address conditions and societal issues affecting fathers and their families. The Council also reviewed grant proposals and made recommendations to the Governor on award recipients and matters relating to fatherhood issues and policies.

On October 1, 2001, the Council merged with the Commission on Responsible Fatherhood.
