Teen
Educational & Social Skills Groups
Our educational social skills programs for teens focus on broad social skills and the specific needs of youth going through adolescence. Sessions are designed for youth with autism spectrum disorder and/or intellectual disability to help them learn skills needed to build friendships, safely begin dating and develop confidence in a variety of social situations. Each group has an individualized curriculum that is based on the assessment of each youth participating. Curriculums are built using the principles of Applied Behaviour Analysis (ABA). Youth participate in a variety of fun activities and engaging lessons, use of tip sheets and practice activities. Parents and caregivers will have opportunities to observe their youth during group sessions and progress updates will be provided throughout the group.
