'Get
Ready.........'
Great for families who are newly diagnosed and wanting to learn
how to engage their child socially with others. It's also excellent
for parents to learn alongside other parents and children in the
same situation. Parents who want a 'hands on' approach need
apply!
Check out program
outline for further details or to register your
child.
'Social
Club'
The Social Club is a program for children to attend without
parents! It is targeted towards children who have experienced a
social skills group with parent participation previously. It
will provide children with many practical opportunities to learn
social skills as part of a small group, with familiar peers and
Autism Action team member support.
