Father Support Group Guidelines for Neurodivergent Children Purpose This support group aims to create a safe and encouraging space for fathers of neurodivergent children. Our goal is to exchange experiences, provide advice, and build a community among fathers experiencing similar challenges and joys.

Group Expectations

  • Confidentiality: What is shared in the group stays in the group. Respect the privacy of all members.

  • Respect: Treat all members with kindness and respect, valuing each person’s experiences and opinions.

  • Active Participation: Engage in discussions, share your experiences, and support others. Your voice is important.

  • No Judgment: Create a non-judgmental space where fathers can express their feelings and thoughts freely.

  • Focus on Solutions: While sharing challenges is important, we also encourage discussions that focus on solutions and coping strategies.

Meeting Structure

  • Opening: Each meeting will begin with a brief introduction and an overview of the agenda.

  • Sharing Time: Members will have the opportunity to share their experiences and insights related to parenting neurodivergent children.

  • Discussion Topics: Each meeting will focus on specific topics relevant to fathers, such as communication strategies, educational resources, and self-care.

  • Resource Sharing: Members are encouraged to share helpful resources, including books, websites, and local services.
