Welcome to the NCFM, LA web site.
Mission Statement:

Who We Are / Are Not:
| We Are Not: | We Are: |
|---|---|
| Politically left or right | We are a nonpartisan organization consisting of Democrats, Republicans, Green Party members, Libertarians, etc. We do not address left/right politics or identify with any political party. |
| Pro or anti-gay | We are concerned about the equal rights of all men and boys regardless of their race, religion or sexuality. We do not address sexual orientation or gender identity. |
| Anti-woman | We respect all people regardless of sex. We believe both sexes are equally capable of good and bad. We appreciate the many women who support men’s equal rights. |
| A family law organization | We focus on activism, not direct services. But we do provide referrals and moral support, and we sometimes provide limited court advocacy and emergency transportation to a battered men’s shelter. |
| A support group | We provide a framework for transforming grief into positive activism. Many find this more therapeutic than a support group. |
