*Note: This is first-generation Sibshop training that allows trainees to start Sibshops in their own community or join the troupe of WisconSibs facilitators that will help expand the number of WisconSibs Sibshops offered throughout Wisconsin. Emily Holl, Director of the Sibling Support Project, will be the trainer.

That’s right it’s a Sibshop in June! This Sibshop will be a part of a training event WisconSibs is hosting for new Sibshop Facilitators. 

Lead by Emily Holl, the Director of the Sibling Support Project, we have a fun filled day planned, for children 7-13 years old, to participate in this extra special Sibshop. Lunch will be provided. There will be time to play, laugh, and talk with other children who get it, while simultaneously helping us teach the trainees what Sibshops are all about.

Space is limited, save your spot and sign up today!

LOCATION: West Boys and Girls Club of Green Bay   311 S Oneida St  Green Bay, WI 54303

Book Club for adult Sibs – IN PERSON – Thursday, June 29!

Join other adults who have siblings with disabilities for this IN PERSON session of our book club.

Here’s a chance to connect with other adult sibs while getting into a book on your reading list or a new read. We’ll be having dinner at Fratellos in Appleton. Weather permitting, we’ll sit outside and enjoy the Fox River.

No need to read a book to attend. We’ll be talking about our favorite books and probably everything else under the summer night sky along the Fox River.

PLEASE LET KRISTIN KNOW IF YOU ARE ATTENDING
so we can make the appropriate reservations at the restaurant.

Join us. Be open to a world of posSIBility! In the meantime, check out our closed WisconSibsREAD Facebook page.
