Sibchats:
Sibchats are a cross between a webinar and a conference call that provides a space for adult siblings to listen in to other adult siblings as peers in order to discuss relevant topics. Unlike a webinar where there is primarily one presenter, this is more of a comfortable discussion among a handful of siblings that allows sibs to listen, ask questions, receive peer support and information, and or share their own thoughts.
