Adult siblings (ages 18 and older) of Tennesseans with disabilities are invited to take part in a survey available online at https://kc.vanderbilt.edu/SiblingResearch. You can also request a hard copy by writing to SiblingResearch@vanderbilt.edu or calling (1-888) 322-5339.

Supported by a grant from the Tennessee Council on Developmental Disabilities, the survey is being conducted by the Vanderbilt Kennedy Center for Excellence in Developmental Disabilities Education, Research and Service. The study’s purpose is to improve understanding of siblings’ relationships and to guide development of policies and programs to support families. Siblings ages 18 to 30 who complete the survey also may be invited to be interviewed, if they give permission to be contacted when they complete the survey.
