Children’s Education Groups

 

Our educational and social skills programs for children with autism spectrum disorder and/or intellectual disabilities focus on broad social skills.

Sessions in each group are catered to the age, theme and assessments of participants. Each group has an individualized curriculum that is based on the assessment of each child participating. Curriculums are built using the principles of Applied Behaviour Analysis (ABA). Groups are designed to help children learn skills needed to make and keep friendships, understand and regulate their emotions, deal with challenges like bullying and develop confidence in a variety of social situations. Children participate through a variety of fun activities & engaging lessons, use of tip sheets and practice activies. Parents and caregivers will have opportunities to observe their children during group sessions and progress updates will be provided throughout each group.

Every group includes:

  • Complimentary initial assessment to determine eligibility   

  • Individualized assessment and behaviour plans

  • Child only sessions

  • Parent/caregiver training

  • Parent & child sessions  

Children participating will receive expert professional instruction as every group receives oversight by a Registered Behaviour Analyst (RBA) and groups are facilitated by Senior Behaviour Technicians (SBT).

Topics covered will be based on the individual assessments and goals of youth in each group.
