Background
SIBS is an intervention developed for siblings and parents of children with chronic disorders. The SIBS intervention has been developed within the overall «Sibling project» led and initiated by Frambu and is part of a larger effort to prevent mental health problems and other challenges experienced by siblings. The project group works on multiple levels and with multiple international collaborators with research, development, and implementation with siblings, parents, and health providers as target groups.

The sibling project has multiple sub-projects which include an ongoing randomized controlled trial, the development of MiniSIBS for preschool siblings, KomSIBS which concerns implementation in Norwegian municipalities, and SIBS-ONLINE which is research and implementation of the online version of the SIBS intervention.
