SUMMARY:[FAN] Of Boys and Men: Why the Modern Male Is Struggling\, Why It Matters\, and What to Do about It
DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, February 12\, 2026\, 7:00 PM CT\, Of Boys and Men: Why the Modern Male Is Struggling\, Why It Matters\, and What to Do about It\, a FAN webinar featuring Richard V. Reeves\, Ph.D.\, in conversation with David Schreiber\, MD. \nREGISTRATION: www.bit.ly/ReevesFANWebinar \nBonus Book Giveaway: FAN is giving away paperback copies of Of Boys and Men to randomly selected Zoom attendees. Details on the webinar registration page. \nBoys and men are struggling. Profound economic and social changes of recent decades have left many losing ground in the classroom\, the workplace\, and the family. While the lives of women have changed\, the lives of many men have remained the same—or in some cases\, worsened. \nIn the widely praised book Of Boys and Men: Why the Modern Male Is Struggling\, Why It Matters\, and What to Do about It\, Richard V. Reeves\, Ph.D.—a father of three sons\, a journalist\, and the founding president of the American Institute for Boys and Men (AIBM)—takes on the complex and urgent crisis of boyhood and manhood. Reeves argues that our attitudes\, institutions\, and laws have failed to keep up\, and that politicians across the ideological spectrum have offered more heat than solutions. \nReeves examines the structural challenges facing boys and men and offers fresh\, evidence-based solutions that turn the page on the corrosive narratives surrounding this issue. Of Boys and Men makes the case that helping the other half of society does not require abandoning the ideal of gender equality. The book was named a “Best Book of 2022” by The New Yorker and The Economist and was a 2024 Summer Reading Selection of Barack Obama. \nIn addition to leading AIBM\, Reeves is a nonresident senior fellow at the Brookings Institution\, where he previously held the John C. and Nancy D. Whitehead Chair in Economic Studies. His work has appeared in The Atlantic\, The Wall Street Journal\, and The New York Times. Earlier in his career\, Reeves was director of the U.K.- based think tank Demos\, director of futures at the Work Foundation\, principal policy adviser to the U.K. minister for welfare reform\, social affairs editor at The Observer\, economics correspondent at The Guardian\, and a researcher at the Institute of Psychiatry at the University of London. \nReeves will be in conversation with David Schreiber\, MD\, a psychiatrist specializing in child\, adolescent\, and adult crisis care. Dr. Schreiber is the CEO and co-founder of Compass Health Center\, which provides in-person and virtual Partial Hospitalization (PHP) and Intensive Outpatient (IOP) services across Illinois\, Maryland\, Minnesota\, and Wisconsin\, with additional virtual care available in Washington\, DC\, and Virginia. \nThis event is suitable for youth 12+. It will be recorded and available on FAN’s website and YouTube channel. \nSponsored by FAN\, in partnership with The Avery Coonley School\, Bennett Day School\, Baker Demonstration School\, Beacon Academy\, Bernard Zell Anshe Emet Day School\, British International School of Chicago\, Catherine Cook School\, Compass Health Center\, Countryside Day School\, Evanston Scholars\, Evanston Township HS D202\, Family Service Center\, The Frances Xavier Warde School\, Francis W.
