Grants and Scholarships

Are there college scholarships available for siblings of special needs children?

Our 18 year old son is off to college in the fall. He has a brother who is 16 and a sister who is 13, both are autistic. He has had to endure a lot being their big brother. He has given so much to his mother and I and his brother and sister. His life has been full of sacrifice. We want him to have a life of his own but, like so many others, the money just isn't there. We are going to need help. He has done so much for our family, we want to see all that love and sacrifice come back to him.

1. not that I knwo of- but you can look into getting more resources for tehyounger siblings so you can have more resources available for college have you looked into SSI (in teh US) teh division of developmental disabilities--tehy can provide services with a financial value-from grants to respite care--and that can free up some resoureces fro your son
