Sibshops provide young brothers and sisters with peer support and information in a lively, recreational setting. Sibshops are evidence of their loving concern for the family member who will have the longest-lasting relationship with a person who has a disability. And, for the kids who attend them, Sibshops are lively, pedal-to-the-metal events where they will:

​

• 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

• Explore how other brother and sisters handle sticky situations sometimes faced by brothers and sisters

• Laugh

• Learn about the services their brothers and sister receive

• Have some more fun!
