Family Mentors

As you begin caring for your baby (or even while you are pregnant) or as you walk through different stages of life,  you might find it helpful to be in contact with another family. Having just experienced many of the emotions you are now facing, they can offer a listening ear and kind words of support and understanding.

Sibling Workshop

Sibling Workshops are designed for brothers and sisters to learn more about disabilities – using games, exercises, and role playing – in an accepting and confidential environment with peers. The workshops result in powerful social connections and early lessons in advocacy.
