The Special Fathers Network (SFN) was created to assist fathers of young children with special needs. This would include newborns with known conditions such as Down Syndrome, Cerebral Palsy and many other circumstances. This also includes young children who were diagnosed later with all types of developmental delays, seizures, as well as those who suffered an injury such as loss of sight, hearing or a traumatic brain injury to name a few.

The SFN is a growing database of SFN Mentor Fathers who stand ready to be matched with a younger dad, like yourself, who is closer to the beginning of his journey raising a child with the same or similar special need. SFN Mentor Fathers have superior listening skills. They make themselves available on an ‘as needed basis’ to share their experiences so you can emulate what they got right and live vicariously through their mistakes. They will NOT offer legal or medical advice, that’s what lawyers and doctors are for.
