No Siblings Left Behind:

Supporting Siblings of Children With Disabilities

 When a family includes disabled children, sibling relationships can become even more dynamic. With so much attention paid to the disabled child, the voices of siblings are too often left unheard. This workshop will cover the sibling experience, research on the impact of disabilities on siblings, and the growing movement to help siblings of children with disabilities.

Plenty of time will be allowed for questions and answers.

 Learn more about:

·        how to foster a positive sibling experience among all your children

·        research on the impact of disabilities on siblings, and

·        the growing sibling movement

 Presented by Massachusetts Sibling Support Network
