Vedi i dettagli del titolo

Our guest this week is Jim Ward of Fenton, MO who is an engineer and project manager at Haberberger Mechanical Contractors and father of three including a son with Aspergers.

Jim and his wife, Shelia, have been married for 29 years and are the proud parents of three children: Caleb (22), Ruth (26) and Noah (28) who has Aspergers.

One of the difficult decisions Jim & Sheila faced was putting Noah in a residential facility as a teenager, becuase of Noah's behavior and for the overall welfare of the family.

We also learn about a number of local programs that Noah and the Ward family have benfited from including:

- St. Louis Arc
- Easter Seals, and
- Family Matters

Jim is very transparent about discussing the ongoing challegnes that Noah faces. It's an insightful and authentic story all on this episode of the SFN Dad to Dad Podcast.

Special thanks to all those who supported the SFN U.S. Tour, a month-long, 50-state, 60+ stop tour that took place from May 21 to June 21, 2026: to strengthen and grow the Special Fathers Network and distribute 1,000+ complimentary copies of our new book: Dads Raising Children With Special Needs & Disabilities: A Guide For 21st Century Dads.

Special Fathers Network –
SFN is a dad to dad mentoring program for fathers raising children with special needs. Many of the 900+ SFN Mentor Fathers, who are raising kids with special needs, have said: “I wish there was something like this when we first received our child’s diagnosis. I felt so isolated. There was no one within my family, at work, at church or within my friend group who understood or could relate to what I was going through.”

SFN Mentor Fathers share their experiences with younger dads closer to the beginning of their journey raising a child with the same or similar special needs. The SFN Mentor Fathers do NOT offer legal or medical advice, that is what lawyers and doctors do. They simply share their experiences and how they have made the most of challenging situations.
