DSAW Sibling Workshops
DSAW Sibling Workshops dedicate time to support siblings of individuals with Down syndrome or related disabilities. Workshops are a safe space for siblings to share their feelings, experiences, and struggles while making connections with other children whose families look a lot like theirs.
Workshop Details
Workshops are tailored to different age groups, and typically include crafts, activities, conversation, and lots of fun!
We offer Sibling Workshops for the 4-8 age group and the 9-14 age group
Workshops are always from 9am-11:30am at the DSAW Office in West Allis, WI
Workshops are run by Kristi Westcott and Abigail McIntyre. Kristi is a DSAW Board Member and mom to a son with Down syndrome and a typically developing daughter. Abigail is DSAW's Outreach & Education Manager and has an older brother with Down syndrome.
