Specific, user-friendly strategies and
techniques for providing relevant
social skills instruction to children
and teens with ASD will be shared at
this workshop. Enjoyable
socialization methods are
emphasized so individuals may
experience success and desire to
build skills. Social deficits affect life
at home, school and eventually in
the workplace. Conference
participants will learn both highly
beneficial strategies that can be
used across a variety of settings and
routines; and practical and effective
solutions to assist ‘typical’ peers,
family members and professionals
to become more understanding,
accepting and engaging of those
with social difficulties.
