             SOUTHERN RIVER, WESTERN AUSTRALIA – 22 May 2014 ---  Boys and Men in Australia, much like their counterparts in other nations, are struggling to reach their full potential and live happier, healthier, and longer lives while confronting the challenges of physical and mental health, education, violence, real life options, and Fatherhood.  Their struggle has moved The Honorable Nick Goiran, MLC (www.nickgoiran.com.au) to issue a historic “Call To Action” to create Western Australia’s “Ministry of Men’s Interests”.  The “Call To Action” comes in the form of an article penned by Goiran entitled, “Ministry For Men’s Interests Needed” which will be reprinted with permission in the Spring 2014 issue of IN SEARCH OF FATHERHOOD® and was originally published in the 6 July 2013 issue of News Weekly.
