Social and Life Skills Groups

These interactive groups are designed to help teach and improve the social and life skills of individuals with Asperger’s Syndrome. Some people with Asperger's Syndrome are able to meet the needs of society: furthering their education, holding jobs, and generally being productive.

In addition, these groups often focus on those who find themselves in a more secluded lifestyle or those who may be experiencing mild to severe difficulty with social interaction, educational achievement, or occupational performance. These types of groups often allow participants to work at their own pace as they learn how to handle the many social, educational, and occupational encounters in their daily lives.
