Families Afield
An initiative for the future of hunting

Families Afield is an education and outreach program to help states create hunting opportunities for youth, so that more families may enjoy America's greatest outdoor tradition together.

The Research-Based Core Values of Families Afield Are:

    Safety first, always.
    Hunting instills traditional values, connectivity with nature and
healthy lifestyles.
 
    Parents, not politics, should decide an appropriate hunting age for their children.  
    When introducing youths into hunting, earlier is better.  
    Youths experience hunting with an adult mentor, then attend a hunter education class.
