Sibshops

Location: St. Francis Children’s Center
Sibshops are for siblings of kids with special developmental concerns, including intellectual and developmental disabilities. For the adults who run them and the agencies that sponsor them, 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. The kids who attend Sibshops will meet with other siblings, have fun, talk, play, explore, laugh, learn, and have more fun!
