Welcome to our Sibshops!
The Star Project is excited to announce the launch of a local community that celebrates the importance of our learners’ brothers and sisters.
We recognize the daily challenges faced by our sibling stars and are committed to creating a safe space for them to talk about their feelings, learn from each other, and most importantly have fun!
