- Description
- Sibshop is a program for typically developing brothers and sisters who have a sibling with a disability or chronic health condition. The program is sponsored through Mary Bridge Good Samaritan Children’s Therapy Unit and a variety of grants. The Sibshop Program is a highly regarded and award-winning workshop model that has been replicated in more than 200 communities in eight countries. For Good Samaritan and CTU, the Sibshop Program exemplifies our focus on family-centered care. Sibshop facilitators include occupational therapists, physical therapists, speech therapists, child psychologists and recreation therapists. Typically, Sibshops for 5 to 11 year olds are held one Saturday per month and Sibshops for 12 to 17 year olds are held one Thursday evening per month.
