Fayette Sibling Support Group, facilitated by Fayette County Navigator Team.  The Sibling Support Group is for brothers and sisters of children with specail needs. Being the brother or sister of a child with special needs is, for some a good thing, for others a not-so-good thing, and for many somewhere in between.  The group focuses on recreational activities designed to promote friendship, learning and acceptance.  Meetings are typically held on the third Thursday of each month, from 5:00 pm - 7:00 pm, excluding July and August. Meeting location may vary.
