We are excited to announce that Smiling Hearts WS will be having a Father’s Day event for Special Needs Dads to come together and know that you are not alone.

Being a dad to a child with special needs comes with unique challenges, responsibilities, and emotions that often go unseen. This evening is about creating a safe space for dads to unwind, connect, be transparent, and build meaningful community with other fathers who truly understand the journey.

Join us for an evening of support, conversation, food, refreshments, and connection as we honor and uplift the incredible dads in our special needs community.

At Smiling Hearts WS, our mission is to continue building inclusive spaces where families feel seen, supported, and understood.

A special thank you to the Veteran Support Initiative for generously allowing us to use their space and helping us create a welcoming environment for our dads to gather and connect. 🇺🇸💙

May 1st marks the start of Williams Syndrome Awareness Month 💙❤️💚

Smiling Hearts began with our son Jacob’s diagnosis. Through our journey raising a child with special needs, we found our purpose to support families, build community, and remind others they are not alone.

While Williams syndrome is when my families special need journey started, our mission is to serve the entire special needs community because this journey is one we understand firsthand.

Individuals with William syndrome not only have Smiling Hearts, but will leave you with one also! ❤️💙💚
