Support for Siblings Gathering/Workshop
-
December 10, 2015
Being the sibling of someone with a profound disability often asks much of the sibling. Though they feel great love for their brother or sister, much is also expected. They typically need to grow up more quickly from additional responsibilities and often their parents' attention is more widely cast with the additional needs in raising an individual with a profound disability.
There will be a gathering for teen and young adult aged siblings:
