Sibshops are a fun\, sib-focused time to conn ect and relax with other siblings who get what being a sib is all about.\n \nFor the adults who run them and for the agencies that sponsor them\, Sib shops are evidence of their loving concern for the family member who will have the longest-lasting relationship with a person who has a disability. However\, for the children and teens who attend them\, Sibshops are fun ev ents where they will meet other sibs (usually for the first time)\, have f un\, laugh\, talk about the challenges and joys of having a sib with disab ilities\, play some great games and learn something about the services the ir brothers and sisters receive.\n\nEspecially during this time when many families are spending more time at home\, siblings are experiencing all ki nds of feelings. Meeting other sibs\, talking and playing games with one a nother can help your child feel less alone and more prepared to handle dif ferent experiences and situations that arise.\n\nAn online Sibshops for ag es 13 to 18 is scheduled for 3 to 4:40 p.m. June 25.\n\nEmily Holl\, direc tor of the Sibling Support Project and a nationally-renowned expert and tr ainer of the Sibshop model\, will facilitate the Zoom Sibshops.\n\nAfter r egistration\, participants will receive a Zoom link via email.\n\nFor more details and to sign up\, visit the Sibshops registration page. \n\nIf yo u have questions\, please contact amy.halm@siblingleadership.org.
