Our Social Learning Program is a Family Affair
Our one-on-one individualized program offers parents the opportunity to work directly with their child’s social learning coach weekly or bi-monthly. Parents are taught how to assist their child in their social learning journey through coaching. Parent check-ins also provide us with an opportunity to hear how skills are carried over throughout the week and then we modify our lessons depending on what is happening in real time for your family. The program you choose depends on your needs. The role that you play in the process as a parent is critical to the ultimate success of your child.
