2024 Ohio Siblings Conference & Retreat
Join Ohio SIBS & Siblings with a Mission for our 2024 Sibling Conference! April 13, 2024
Attendees at the conference will acquire valuable knowledge from Meghan Burke, a keynote speaker, sibling, and researcher from Vanderbilt University. Meghan will address case and cause leadership, guiding attendees in supporting their brothers or sisters and the broader disability community.
We will also feature a sibling panel facilitated by sibling Lynne Calloway with special guests siblings Kari Jones of ElevateDD, Barbra Sapharas Charting the Lifecourse Facilitator, Tim Brown vice chair of Wood County Board of Developmental Disabilities, and Barbra Corley of Corley Caregiver Consulting. Then we will have an interactive session on Sibling Stories led by Abby Turnwald an author of a children’s book for siblings, and then we will have breakout sessions with resources to share and a Self-Care Workshop led by sibling Kara Michelle Pierson, the founder of Lilac and Indigo. Please join us to meet other siblings of people with disabilities!
