WHAT WE DO
At SeventyOne98, we are dedicated to supporting Dads on their journey of personal and professional growth. We offer workshops, mentorship programs, and resources to empower Fathers to build healthy relationships with their children and improve their life skills. Our community fosters a positive environment where Dads can share experiences, learn from one another, and gain confidence in their roles. Together, we strive to create a brighter future for families through the progression of Dads.
CEO
Sylvester Rupert
I'm a fulltime dedicated single Dad to five amazing sons, navigating through the challenges of parenthood while pursuing my undergraduate degree in Psychology, where I proudly maintain a 4.0 GPA. I'm a Christian, an advocate for Dads, a life coach, a mandated reporter, a licensed resource parent, and a Caregiver. I'm a family counselor, Behavioral Health Therapist, and the Director of a curriculum and college-based K-12 Performing Arts Christian Academy.
I'm very passionate about supporting Dads on their mental health journey, building relationships, (Fatherhood/Brotherhood), and creating a positive impact in families and communities nationwide. I love laughter, collaborating, and being an ear and heart to those who need it. I believe in the power of PRAYER! I believe in the power of HEALING! I believe in the power of FORGIVENESS. And not just forgiving others, but FORGIVING YOURSELF!

My Tribe of 5
Being deeply loved by someone gives you strength, while loving someone deeply gives you courage. There is always some madness in love, but there is also, always some reason in madness. The greatest happiness in life is the conviction that we are loved...loved for ourselves, or rather, loved in spite of ourselves.
When God gifts us with the responsibility and opportunity of being responsible for life, we owe our life to the gifts that were preciously given to us. I have received the greatest gift of love from God, (next to His Son) ...my sons! All 5 of them! ​​​
​
They serve as the heartbeat for this organization, and the blueprint behind it being built. They are more than just my sons; they are my supporters. They are the foundation of our mission and the inspiration behind every success. Their dedication to be a son, fuels my passion to continue this journey through Fatherhood, and Sonship.
