Sibshops provide young brothers and sisters peer support and information in a lively, recreational setting.
It gives us great pleasure to offer Sibshops with two age groups for the Hampton Roads area at Inside Out Learners! This is an exciting program just for brothers and sisters of kids with special needs. At a Sibshop event, brothers and sisters will:
• Meet other brothers and sisters of individuals with special needs.
• Engage in fun group activities appropriate for their age group.
• Talk with others who "get it" about the good (and sometimes not-so-good!) parts of
having a sib with special needs.
• Learn more about disabilities and the services that people with disabilities receive.
• Have fun!

Who runs Sibshops?
Our Sibshops are run by a team of people who have a professional and, in many cases, personal understanding of the impact a child's special needs can have on brothers and sisters. Equally important, they all have great kid skills!
