Sibling Connections is the only organization in Massachusetts designed to strengthen the sibling bond of children separated by foster care. While the sibling relationship is the longest, and one of the most important, relationships most people have in their lives, this is especially true for children who are removed from their families because of abuse or neglect. In many instances, a brother or sister might literally be the only constant relationship in a child’s life.
Mission:
The primary goal of Sibling Connections is to support the creating of enduring family relationships and community connections for sisters and brothers who experience foster care. Our work is accomplished through innovative programs and practices that restore and strengthen the lives of siblings who have been separated when placed in the public foster care system.
