Special Needs Siblings

This story hit home.

Not because it’s rare… but because it’s common.

So many siblings of disabled individuals grow up adjusting, helping, and carrying more than people realize.

And then one day… they’re expected to carry it forever.

They can love families AND still need support.

They can show up AND still deserve a life of their own.

If we’re going to talk about supporting families in the disability space…
we have to include the siblings.

At every age.

Happy National Siblings Day to the siblings who love big, adjust often, and carry more than most people realize. 💛

To the brothers and sisters of disabled individuals: we see you, we honor you, and you matter too.

Join Us for a Sensory-Friendly Evening at the High Museum

The Auturity community will be attending the High Museum of Art’s Sensory-Friendly Evening, and we’d love for others to join us.

This free, after-hours event is designed for adults who identify as neurodivergent or disabled and includes sensory-friendly art-making, gentle movement/yoga, a relaxation room, and a welcoming museum experience in a supportive environment.

If this sounds like something you or someone you support would enjoy, please review the flyer for details and be sure to register online.

Let’s continue showing up together for inclusive, accessible arts experiences in our community.

💓Even at a young age siblings can sense that things aren't the same between themselves and their brother or sister. This can be a source of great pain as they grow older, but acknowledging this truth can be therapeutic.

It's not easy, but it's honest. Sibling relationships are vital in our families. It is crucial to recognize this because usually they will survive the parents.
Family is important. Healthy relationships are important.

We are here to continue to build awareness to this part of our families! 💖

How is 'fairness' discussed within your family? 💓
