Children’s Social Skills
Learn play & communication skills needed to build friendships.
These parent-assisted programs for children with autism spectrum disorder and/or intellectual disability are designed to help them learn skills needed to build friendships. 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). Children participate through a variety of fun activities and engaging lessons, use of tip sheets and homework. Parents and caregivers will have opportunities to observe their child during group sessions and progress updates will be provided throughout the group.
Each social skills group includes:
Complimentary initial assessment to determine eligibility
Individualized assessment and behaviour plans
Child only sessions
Parent training
Parent & child sessions
Your child will receive expert professional care as every group receives oversight by a Board Certified Behaviour Analyst (BCBA)/Clinical Supervisor and groups are facilitated by Registered Behaviour Technicians.
Topics covered will be based on the individual assessments and goals of children in each group and can include:
Initiating conversation
Maintaining conversations
Bullying
Greetings
Sharing
Joining in play
Sportsmanship
Identifying non-verbal cues
