Whether they are involved as a child, teen or adult, WisconSibs programs focus on siblings networking with others who share similar joys and concerns, and connecting with sources of information they need in their unique roles.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
When a child is diagnosed with a disability or long-term health care need, the whole family is changed and needs support. That includes the sisters and brothers. When an adult with a disability outlives his or her parents, who's left to step up? Most often, their sisters and brothers. While often overlooked, siblings - the brothers and sisters - play a critical, life-long role for a person with special needs. And who can help siblings connect with each other and with resources to help them celebrate the joys and share the challenges of having a brother or sister with a disability? Welcome to WisconSibs!

So . . . Who Are You?
