Guest guest Posted July 1, 2004 Report Share Posted July 1, 2004 I am exploring the idea of helping to get a social skills summer camp for next summer in Houston off the ground. I'm thinking about a multi-week, 3 - 4 hour a day format somewhere in the greater Houston area. If there are any folks out there interested, please e-mail me privately. The first question I was asked were how many people might be interested in this. Please e-mail me privately with the age and sex of your child. Also please give me an idea as to how verbal the child is: one word utterances, two word, etc. Thanks, Social Skills groups Many of you have posted or asked me personally about social skills groups.

Guest guest Posted April 3, 2009 Report Share Posted April 3, 2009 Hello - The social group my daughter (15yo) attends mostly discusses socially-related topics such as learning to read body language, facial expressions, dating, etc. They do some role-playing as part of their activities, but that's about the extent of it. She's made progress overall, she interacts w/adults very well. Unfortunately has not made any real friends w/her peers, only has acquaintances. It's something we continually work on. Pat Subject: Social Skills Groups To: Autism_in_Girls_and_Women Date: Thursday, April 2, 2009, 5:43 PM Hello~ For those of you whose daughters are involved in social skills groups (middle school and up,) can you tell me what kinds of activities they do there specifically, and what kind of social progress you've seen as a direct result? Have your daughters made any lasting friendships because of the groups? Thanks. We've been invited to try one, and I'm curious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
