Hello and thank you for checking out our website. Here at Ohio Special Initiatives by Brothers and Sisters (SIBS) we are interested in education, support, and advocacy issues relating to those who have siblings with disabilities. We have been providing support services to siblings and families for nearly 20 years.

Each year we host the Ohio SIBS Adult Sibling Conference in Columbus, Ohio. At the Ohio SIBS conference adult brothers and sisters of people with MR/DD and other disabilities can gather together to hear directly from MR/DD professionals, educators, politicians, and other adult siblings. The conference is an opportunity to share information, ideas and family experiences. The primary goal of the conference is to provide a safe, supportive environment that provides an honest look at our family roles as caregivers, advocates and siblings.
