Sibshops - Support for siblings of kids with special needs

Sibshops are a celebration of the many lifelong contributions made by brothers and sisters of people with special health and developmental needs.   

   

Sibshops provide young brothers and sisters peer support and information in a lively, recreational setting. They are pedal-to-the-metal events where sibs:

• Meet other sibs (usually for the first time)

• Have fun

• Talk about the good and not-so-good parts of having a sib with special needs with others who "get it"

• Play some great games

• Learn how others handle sticky situations sometimes faced by brothers and sisters

• Laugh

• Learn about the services their brothers and sister receive

• Have some more fun!
