Community Autism Resources is offering PEERS® for TEENS ages 13 - 17
Navigating social situations can sometimes be difficult and confusing. This is why we created a space where we can learn together in a non-judgmental setting.
Sessions for this free social skills group run from January 8th,- February 26th, 4:30 PM – 6 PM (We request that you be able to make all 8 sessions!) at Community Autism Resources, 40a Dean St, Taunton.
This is NOT your average “autism social skills” group. We truly play off of the strengths, interests, and goals of each individual who attends. We have fun with it because, after all, making friends should be fun!
In our PEERS® Sessions, our highly skilled staff team will work with each group to focus on the strengths and uniqueness that everyone brings. We bring many years of experience working with autistic individuals navigating through the nuanced world of making and keeping friends. The curriculum we use to create our groups is from PEERS®, which is an evidence-based social skills intervention for motivated individuals diagnosed with ASD who are interested in learning skills to make and keep friends and develop romantic relationships.
Topics this group will cover:
⭐️Conversational Skills
⭐️Staying safe online
⭐️Hosting or attending get-togethers
⭐️Handling Disagreements
⭐️Handling Bullying (Indirect and Direct)
and Dating

We look forward to meeting you and helping you achieve your goals!!!
