The second workshop will be a presentation by Susan DuRant, the ASibL Network Project Coordinator and parent of an adult child with special needs, on “What You Need to Know if You are the Adult Sibling of an Individual with Disabilities”.
The Conference will be held on March 23 and 24, 2012 at the First Baptist Church, 1306 Hampton St., Columbia, SC 29201. To get more information call 803-252-0914 or 800-578-8750. You can also go to the Family Connection SC website at www.FamilyConnectionSC.org to learn more information.
