Advocate Children’s Hospital will host a virtual “Sibshops for Teens” meeting on April 5 from 5 to 6:30 p.m.

Sibshops are a program of the National Sibling Support Project. Organizations nationwide run Sibshops to recognize and address the life-long and ever-changing concerns of millions of siblings of people with developmental, health, and mental health concerns.

Advocate Children’s Hospital Teen Sibshops offer peer support and fun educational activities for teens who have a brother or sister with a disability or chronic condition.

Teens ages 12 and up will enjoy:

  • Fun activities
  • Games
  • Discussions about other siblings about their common experiences, joys, and concerns

The Sibshops session is free and will be on Zoom.
