Abstract
This study uses the theoretical model of life course fit to assess the interactions of work, family, and community resources in the context of work–life fit for fathers of children with special health care needs. Work, family, and community resources were significant predictors of work–life fit. A significant moderating relationship was found between work and family resource ecologies and a trend-level moderating relationship between family and community resource ecologies. The findings support the theoretical model of life course fit. Future research needs to include community resource ecologies and explore interactive effects between resources. There is a need for improved work and community resources to support fathers’ employment and reduce the pressure on family resources.
