SibShops


Published: Tuesday, December 8, 2015

 

  Our Sibshop facilitator is Kristen Wallen.  She is the mother of a child with a disability and a typically developing child.  She has witnessed first hand the importance of supporting siblings of children with disabilities.  Her activities are always exciting and the children always have fun.  

    If you have a child between the ages of 5 and 13 who would like to participate in Sibshops, call Brandy Parks at 613-0042.  We will have our next Sibshop in January.  Check back here for the details.
