"Strong Start K-2 has been a great resource for our sibling support group. We work with children with disabilities and the siblings at this age are really struggling with emotions and how to share their feelings with parents who are already stressed. We have seen how the siblings have taken the activities back home and are modeling to their family. What a great resource!" --Suzanne Salmo, MSW, LCSW
