Ryan Glidwell Headshot

Ryan Glidwell

Regional Coordinator, Northwest MO

Ryan is grateful to be part of the team at Good Dads, where his work connects closely with his own story. Having been shaped by a good dad, he cares deeply about what it means to become one and believes fatherhood is less about perfection and more about presence, humility and steady love. He is passionate about helping dads grow and strengthen their families. 

Before joining Good Dads, Ryan worked in other nonprofit roles focused on community impact, life skills training, program development, and re-entry services, where he developed a heart for helping individuals grow, build meaningful connections, and access the support they need to move forward.

Ryan’s most important role is being a father to his two kids and a husband to his wife, and he cherishes time with his family. He is also actively involved in his church community and enjoys the relationships and everyday moments that make life meaningful.
