Special Needs Adult? Worried About the Future?

Supporting your sibling shouldn’t mean doing it all alone.

You want your brother or sister to be safe, loved, and cared for. You deserve a plan that provides that support and doesn’t overwhelm your life.

If stepping into this role feels heavier than you expected, you’re not alone. You need a partner who understands the system and the weight of the responsibility.

Caring for your sibling shouldn’t feel impossible.

You can love your sibling deeply and feel overwhelmed with the realities of managing their long-term care.
You may be asking:

  • Where do I even start?
  • How much support does my sibling actually need?
  • Who’s going to help with daily routines, medication, or emergencies?
  • Do they need to live with me? Are there other options?
  • How do I protect their future without sacrificing my life?
  • Can I preserve our relationship while also managing their care?


It’s a lot. But you don’t have to piece together answers on your own.

You deserve a steady hand:

Someone who knows the system and understands the human side of it, too. 

I’m Samantha, founder of Momentum Family Strategies.

We help adults with disabilities and their siblings navigate Life After Mom & Dad ™ 
 so they can live their best lives. 

For more than a decade, we’ve helped families navigate Kentucky’s disability and Medicaid waiver systems, build sustainable support teams, and create stability that lasts.

We know the paperwork, the policies, and the real-world challenges families face.

But more than that: we understand the emotional load you’re carrying. You don’t have to do this alone. We can help.

You don’t have to stay in crisis mode.

Step 1: Free Strategy Call

We assess where things stand now, what your sibling needs, what your capacity actually is, and what success would look like for both of you. No judgment. Just honest assessment.

Step 2: Custom Support Plan

We create your roadmap: caregiver recruitment strategy, daily schedule framework, housing evaluation, funding plan, emergency steps. Prioritized by urgency and your specific situation.

Step 3: Implementation Support

We don't just hand you a plan. We help you execute: writing job posts, screening candidates, navigating applications, building routines, managing caregivers. Whatever you need to go from stuck to stable.

When you have the right support, everything changes.

Here’s what becomes possible:

Confidence Instead of Uncertainty: You will know what your sibling needs and how to make it happen.

A Reliable Support Team: Caregivers who show up and stay around.

Daily Routines That Run Smoothly: Clear responsibilities, medication schedules, emergency plans, and predictable structure.

Housing Options That Make Sense: From staying in the family home to supported living, we help you make a plan that fits.

A Stronger Relationship: You get to be the sibling again, not the crisis manager.

This is about stability, dignity, and a future that works… for both of you.

You don’t have to stay in crisis mode.

Trying to navigate this alone causes burnout, confusion, and systems that fall apart when you can’t be there.

There’s a better way. And Momentum Family Strategies is here to help.

The Best Time to Start Was Five Years Ago.

The Second-Best Time Is Today.

Every month you wait:

  • Your parents get older and less able to fill the gaps
  • Daily routines depend more on people who won't be there forever
  • You have less time to build relationships with caregivers and test systems
  • Transitions become more abrupt and traumatic


Start now. Build gradually. Breathe easier. Your future self will thank you.
