Overview

Come join us for a heartwarming session on how to be the best support for siblings of children with disabilities.

Overview


The journey of families with children who have disabilities is unique, and the experiences of siblings are often overlooked. Our course, Supporting Siblings of Children with Disabilities, addresses this crucial gap by providing strategies, knowledge, and insights for supporting siblings while promoting awareness of autism, learning disabilities, neurodiversity, social skills, psychology, and child counselling.


Siblings of children with disabilities can face emotional, social, and psychological challenges. They often need guidance to develop social skills, cope with family dynamics, and understand neurodiversity. This course is designed for parents, educators, counselors, and caregivers who want to make a meaningful difference in the lives of siblings while fostering understanding and empathy for children with autism or learning disabilities.


With a low-commitment structure, participants can learn at their own pace, gaining practical and psychological tools to support siblings. Spaces are limited—this is a one-time opportunity, and we will not offer this course again in the same format. Missing out means waiting for the next chance, which may take a long time.
