In this group, youth will learn about and practice important social skills, such as initiating, maintaining and ending a conversation; how to join into an activity, phone calls and electronic communication; appropriate use of humour; and hosting a get together. This program is appropriate for youth who do better in smaller groups and require additional supports. They must be able to follow and understand one-step instructions independently, communicate using verbal requests, comments and questions, and can participate in a group setting without 1:1 support. Skills will be taught in a group format using Applied Behaviour Analysis (ABA) evidence based strategies.
Please note that there is a limit of one clinical group per child.
To ensure a good fit for your child, please review the age requirements and skill levels in the descriptions for each group to make your selections.
