SibTeen

SibTeen is Facebook group where teenage sibs of people with disabilities can connect with others who get it. It’s a fun and thoughtful group where members share unique concerns, joys, frustrations, and information with others who truly understand!

Like SibNet and Sib20, SibTeen is a “closed” Facebook group. This means that others can see that you belong to SibTeen, but they can’t see what you’ve posted. Only other SibTeen members can see what you’ve posted to SibTeen. Click here to go to the SibTeen Facebook page. Once you’re there, click the button that says “Join Group.”

A note to parents, service providers and other adults wishing to join SibTeen: We totally understand why a parent, Sibshop facilitator, or other adult might want to join SibTeen. However, we have promised our young members a private place where they could connect with others who “get it.” Please know that we read each message posted to the SibTeen Facebook group. While no place on the Internet is without any risk, we have a number of measures in place to assure that SibTeen is as safe, friendly, and insightful as possible. If you’d like to discuss these measures, please feel free to drop us a line.

SibTeen is co-hosted by the Sibling Support Project and Siblings Australia.
