For the past several months, we have met with siblings in our community to understand their needs. This effort, led by volunteers Erica Hauser and Catherine Flynn, will help us design our sibling support program.

This session will share common themes we've learned from our sibling meetings, outline what parents should consider, and frame program ideas. It will also include what research says about siblings of children with chronic health needs, intellectual disabilities, and other differences. Tips and strategies will be shared.
