Walnut Grove Cabinet Co. is sponsoring the Darke County stop on the Special Father’s Network US Tour. This event is open for fathers, mothers, caregivers, and friends of children with special needs seeking mentorship, support, and connection. The Special Father’s Network (SFN) is a division of the 21st Century Dads Foundation, a 501c3 created to address the issue of father absence, one of the root causes of what ails society.
This event will take place on Wednesday, June 17, 2026 from 5-7:30pm at Darke County Board of Developmental Disabilities, 5844 Jaysville-St Johns Rd, Greenville, OH 45331. RSVP by finding the event page on Walnut Grove’s Facebook page at https://bit.ly/DarkeSFNTour.

The main event led by David Hirsch, will be from 6pm-7:30pm. Hear from author, founder of SFN, and The Dad to Dad Podcast host, David Hirsch, and receive a complimentary copy of his new book: Dads Raising Children With Special Needs & Disabilities: A Guide for 21st Century Dads. Greenville Township will also be in attendance with a firetruck and ambulance open for tours.
Special Father’s Network is the premiere dad-to-dad mentoring program for fathers raising children with special needs. Through their personalized matching process, new fathers with a special needs child are connected with another father (A Mentor Father) who has experienced a similar situation. Mentor Fathers are matched as closely as possible based on the child’s special need, gender, ethnicity, socioeconomic group, and relationship to the child (i.e. father, stepfather, grandfather), providing the younger father with a special needs child, a chance to ask personal questions and receive support from a peer who is truly familiar with the situation.
