About Us

Dads Speak is a registered Australian charity created by dads, for dads. We exist to support fathers, families, and carers of children with disabilities through connection, education, and wellbeing initiatives.

We know the journey of raising a child with additional needs can be isolating, overwhelming, and at times, exhausting. That’s why we bring dads together – to share experiences, learn from each other, and create a community that truly understands.

Our approach is built on three pillars:

  • Connection: Building strong networks so no dad has to feel alone in their journey.
  • Education: Providing access to knowledge, tools, and lived experience to help dads navigate challenges with confidence.
  • Wellbeing: Creating opportunities for physical, mental, and emotional health – because a strong dad means a strong family.

Through events, podcasts, workshops, and partnerships, Dads Speak is a place where mateship thrives, stories are shared without judgement, and every dad is encouraged to speak up.

Our mission is simple: Support dads. Support families. Build stronger communities.
