Sibshops offer FREE support, friendship and fun! For siblings ages 7 – 12* of children with special needs.
*NEW: Middle School SIBS for 6th – 8th graders (ages 11 – 14)
Sibshops provide a safe space for young brothers and sisters, who have a sibling with a disability, to get peer support and information. In a lively recreational setting, Sibshops connect siblings living in similar situations using play and storytelling. They provide children opportunities to express and share feelings and thoughts about their sibling with a disability.
