Current Press Release

LITTLE EGG HARBOR – On Tuesday, October 24, 7 pm, we invite children, grades 1 - 6, who have special needs siblings, to join us for an evening of connection, empowerment, and celebration at our "Sibling Get Together" at the Little Egg Harbor Branch of the Ocean County Library.

Children who have siblings with special needs often face unique challenges and experiences that can be both rewarding and demanding. Our program aims to provide a safe and nurturing space for these extraordinary siblings to connect, share experiences, meet friends in similar situations, and foster lasting friendships.

Join us as we build a community where siblings can find understanding, strength, and the tools to navigate their exceptional journey with love and compassion, in a judgement-free space that allows the siblings to feel free to talk with their peers. This gathering is intended to provide support and connections but is not structured or intended as a therapy session.

Please register at www.theoceancountylibrary.org/events to attend this free program. For more information, visit the Little Egg Harbor Branch, 290 Mathistown Road, or call (609) 294-1197.

Keep up with Library programs and events at www.theoceancountylibrary.org, and on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, YouTube, Spotify, and Pinterest.
