Support For Siblings

SibNet is a remarkably thoughtful, nonjudgmental community of adult sisters and brothers of people who have disabilities. This organization shares information about workshops, strategies, & services to help siblings advocate for their siblings with disabilities & families. Siblings are free to discuss concerns and challenges–but insights and joys that only other sibs are likely to understand. Please check out the website https://www.siblingsupport.org/connect-with-others-sibs/meeting_other_sibs_online/sibnet & the FaceBook page https://www.facebook.com/groups/SibNet/about/.

Another resource is the Sibling Leadership Network. Siblings, parents, as well as people with disabilities can join this organization for free. The purpose of the Sibling Leadership Network is to  promote a broad network of siblings who share the experience of disability and people concerned with sibling issues by connecting them to social, emotional, governmental, and provisional supports across the lifespan enabling them to be effective advocates with their brother and sister, and to serve as change agents for themselves and their families.
