Siblings programs, also known as Sibshops, provide support for brothers and sisters of individuals with special needs. Sibshops were created to give siblings a chance to meet others in similar situations, find support, and share experiences. They incorporate fun activities, games, discussions and mentoring to help siblings cope with feelings like embarrassment, guilt, shame, isolation or resentment. Research shows that siblings can experience behavioral issues, stress and feelings of responsibility like parents, so Sibshops aim to emphasize resilience and foster friendships among participants.
