Sullivan ARC

Sibshop is a fun, dynamic group for kids with
siblings with special needs. It is not therapy but a
social outlet that provides opportunities for peer
support. Currently open to kids ages 4-21. We do
monthly (usually twice a month) recreational
activities, have discussions re: sibs and what it is
like growing up with a sibling with special needs.
Usually the conversations are spontaneous and
completely driven by the kids, its good to know there
are others out in the world feeling the same things
you are. Some of the things we have done are:
bowling, mini golfing, made t-shirts, participated in
the Autism walk, took in a Broadway play in the city,
swimming, arts-n-crafts, hiking. We have a blast and
the kids really look forward to the next time we get
together. This program is funded with a grant so all
activities and food are paid for by the program.

share in their child's development.

and the remaining are non-ambulatory. Our program,
through our Article 28 Clinic, provides on-site
medical, physical, and psychological support
including primary medicine, primary dental,
neurology, psychology, monthly psychiatric,
