The California Men’s Centers began as the San Diego Men’s Center in late 2004. Within five years we hope to have centers in other locations in California. Hence, the generic California Men’s Centers. The Center offers information, referral, mediation preparation, individual coaching, support groups, and DNA paternity testing. For a complete list see our “Services” page. NOTE: We are not attorneys and do not give legal advice.
We are supported entirely by private funding, mostly individual donations. We have no desire to seek federal or state grants which if secured would necessarily make us part of the problem rather than part of the solution. Even if organizations such as ours could get state funding anti-male sentiment drives the funding sources, allocating legislation, and provision of services.
Men are discriminated against, especially in westernized societies. Consequently, a plethora of various services exist for almost any group other than men, particularly heterosexual men, their families, and the women that love them.
For example, California prohibits the use of state funds to provide services for heterosexual males and male children over the age of 12 who are victims of domestic violence. This example readily shows the depth of System discrimination against males even when young and abused.
When talking about the California Men’s Center San Diego numerous people have asked if it’s a gay rights organization, which it is not, except in terms of equal rights for men, all men, regardless of sexual orientation.
In fact, the primary focus of the Men’s Center is helping men, their families, and the women that love them, though we encourage others to become actively involved. Consequently we started a Second Spouses Club primarily for women. Many gays and lesbians are confronted with discordant child custody; paternity, abuse, and related issues and we welcome their participation as well. It’s interesting that so many people associate the word men with being gay, as if heterosexual men and their issues are simply not worth considering.
We will help anyone seeking our services within our ability and
resources; however, we reserve the right to refuse services to anyone.
The Men’s Center intends to fill voids in the provision of community services with innovative services and programs, not replicate established ones. People seeking Men’s Center services will be referred to established service providers as applicable and appropriate at the sole discretion of the Men’s Center.
Ask yourself, “Why raise our sons to be disposable?”
NOTE: Nothing in this website is legal advice. If you need legal advice consult with an attorney well experienced in applicable field of law. If you need a family law attorney find experienced in family law attorneys.
That link takes you to an unbelievable transcript. In a related hearing this week minor’s counsel established there were 25 false accusations! Then the falsely accused father strapped on a GPS… I’ve sent this to the San Diego District Attorney who has promised that it will be turned over to the police for investigation. The transcript establishes a series of crimes including perjury of which there is no question. Guess to whom the court awarded custody of the children?

Filed January 15, 2010 in the Los Angeles County, California
This amazing case comes about from the continuing Emad Tadros saga. For those of you not following this dramatic effort the following press release should put things in perspective. After reading it, get your favorite drink, maybe some munchies, turn on some relaxing music, and read the Blanchet case (.pdf viewer required). Or, as one of the disaffected said, “Holy shit, somebody actually figured it out….”
Press Release
Embroiled San Diego Psychologist Dr. Stephen Doyne Sues Former Client-a Well-Respected Board Certified Psychiatrist- for Making Whistleblower Claims Alleging Doyne’s Rampant Fraud and Abuse
San Diego, CA - January 18, 2010 - California Coalition for Families and Children (”CCFC”) Amicus Curiae in a San Diego Superior Court “whistleblower” lawsuit accusing San Diego psychologist Dr. Stephen Doyne of defrauding thousands of clients-announces that Dr. Doyne is, for the second time in three months, suing a former parent/client who is accusing Doyne of defrauding San Diego parents who used his services.
Dozens of Doyne’s former clients have made “whistleblower” claims in court that Doyne defrauded them and others of millions of dollars. In November, 2009 Doyne did not deny these many claims, but instead claimed that he was immune from liability because he occasionally works in a courthouse.
Background: According to attorney Colbern Stuart, a spokesperson for the California Coalition for Families and Children–Dr. Stephen E. Doyne is the most prominent child custody evaluator in San Diego, working at Scripps Health in La Jolla for over three decades. According to Tadros, he sued Doyne to require that Doyne cease his fraud and abuse. Among other claims, papers filed in Dr. Tadros’ case establish that institutions Doyne claims to have attended or been affiliated with deny the claims on Doyne’s resume, received his “Board Certified” certificate from a sham “diploma mill” what has given such certificates to a cat and a convicted murderer while in prison.
Dr. Tadros states that soon after he filed, his lawsuit was joined by dozens of Doyne’s former patients who raise similar concerns, corroborating Dr. Tadros’ claims. These former patients claim that Doyne regularly “shakes down” clients in his care, depriving them of millions of dollars per year based on junk science. Doyne’s former clients have been financially devastated due to Doyen’s unethical behavior, client fraud, and abuse of children and their parents.
Despite the fact that Doyne’s former clients have uncovered numerous misrepresentations on Doyne’s qualifications as a psychologist, he continues to make such misrepresentations to his current clients, future clients, and the San Diego family law courts and community. Doyne is also charged with committing federal mail fraud, bank fraud, tax fraud, and wire fraud in violation of numerous state and federal laws, causing injury to the San Diego family Court, family court attorneys, and San Diego families and children.
The CCFC alleges that Doyne makes over one million dollars a year billing clients for services he does not render, recommending fraudulent and unnecessary procedures by a large network of psychologist colleagues, administers unnecessary and harmful procedures to his many children patients.
“A prominent San Diego psychologist should adhere to the highest standards of ethics when dealing with clients and patients.” Says Dr. Emad Tadros, Vice Chief of Behavioral Sciences at Scripps Mercy Health Hospital in San Diego. “Dr. Doyne’s behavior has fallen well
below the relevant standards of care in our profession, and he should be held accountable for the harm he has caused to families and children” said Tadros.
Dr. Doyne claims he can’t be held accountable because he often works in San Diego County Courts. In other words, he’s saying “I have a license to harm and steal because I work in a courthouse Doyne works at Scripps La Jolla. “Why such a great institution as Scripps would continue to be affiliated with a con-artist like Doyne is a mystery to me” said CCFC President Cole Stuart. “Doyne’s actions are a disgrace to the profession of psychology, the hospital he works for and the entire San Diego professional and legal community” said Tadros. “Even though Dr. Doyne offered to pay me money to ‘buy my silence’, I have refused any effort to ‘cover up’ this harmful, unprofessional conduct. Dr. Doyne must immediately cease these and other harmful practices, which cause tremendous harm and grief to San Diego children and families.” Said Tadros.
The CCFC has alerted state and federal authorities to Doyne’s fraud and abuse. Criminal and Civil investigations are underway.
Doyne has scheduled a hearing on the issue of sanctions for April 2, 2010 at 11:00 a.m. in Department C-70 of the San Diego Superior Court. Dr. Tadros’ Motion for Reconsideration is scheduled in the same courtroom for April 2, 2010.

“False accusations are not a rarity, they are themselves a form of rape, and a political hot potato. It will doubtless take a female politician of enormous integrity to confront the issue.” Warren Farrell, Myth of Male Power. The Myth of Male Power is a must read for anyone interested in issues related to false accusations.
We are also looking for a copy of Charles P. McDowell, Ph.D. “False Allegations” which was published in Forensic Science Digest, (publication of the U.S. Air Force Office of Special Investigations), Vol. 11, No. 4 (December 1985), p. 64. If you have a copy please send it my way.
The National Coalition For Men joined in this amicus brief, Tadros v Doyne amicus brief. You can read our letter in Appendix B.
Attorney Cole Stuart put together this excellent brief in less time than it takes to bail out of jail for a false domestic violence charge. As of this typing attorney Stuart is still requesting more individuals and organizations sign on as supporters.
If interested you will find near the back of the brief blank signature pages. Just print one out, fill in the requested information, and fax to Cole Stuart at 424.228.5272. More contact information is in the brief if you want to scan and email a copy to Cole or otherwise contact him for additional information. The brief has been filed but additional supporters will be submitted to the Court supplement-ally.
You can Google “Tadros” and “Doyne” (both words in quotes with the and in the middle for even more background).
