The podcats introduces Got4titude, an initiative founded by Kirby Rabalais, and described by David Ruttenberg, aimed at supporting fathers of children with disabilities or complex medical needs.
Rabalais’s own experience after his son’s diagnosis revealed a significant lack of resources and community specifically for fathers, leading to feelings of isolation.
Got4titude addresses this gap by creating an exclusive and intentional space where these fathers can connect, share experiences, and receive practical as well as emotional support. The organization emphasizes the importance of peer connection, practical tools, building resilience, and developing a positive mindset to help fathers navigate their unique challenges.
Ultimately, Got4titude seeks to empower fathers, recognizing that their well-being directly contributes to the thriving of their families.
