The Family Center for Children and Youth with Special Health Care Needs is excited to announce that they will be offering a Sibshop Facilitator Training on August 15-16, 2024. This opportunity is open to parents, caregivers, educators, community partners, and local health department staff. During the two-day event, participants will learn about sibs’ lifelong concerns, find out how to organize a local Sibshop, and experience what a Sibshop is all about as they join us and a group of young brothers and sisters for a Demonstration Sibshop.
Day one is open to anyone wanting to learn about sibling issues and Sibshops. Individuals interested in becoming a certified Sibshop facilitator should attend both days. Following the Sibshop training, the Family Center will be sharing information about how to apply for a grant to run a Sibshop in your community!
