Are you a sibling who thought, even as a child, that when the day came and your parents no longer could care for your sibling, that you’d take over?  Or perhaps you’ve never been sure about the future plans and need some answers?

For adults who have a sibling with developmental disabilities or long-term illnesses, the journey together is lifelong. You may already be in a care giving role or expect to in the future. This program helps you clarify your role and get the planning tools to move forward.

Journey Forward has one main goal— to help you move forward with a plan. 

When you are finished with both workshop sessions, you will have a written document which describes your sibling’s desired future living arrangement, community role, and lifestyle preferences.  You will have a plan that includes practical directions and information for maintaining continuity in your sibling’s daily life and needed supports to achieve these outcomes.  Some call this peace of mind. 

Email [email protected] for more information about the Madison workshop on October 8.

If you have questions about Journey Forward in general, contact us at the WisconSibs office.
