The participation of older sibs would be so appreciated. Your wisdom and experience would so help mentor the younger attendees who may have questions that can best be answered by you.

A handout will be sent to you after the cruise with further information to help with being proactive throughout the lifespan and to teach independence, safety and appropriateness. It also includes educational strategies that support success and a resource list of some of the many materials available for both parents and professionals.
