Teaching Autistic Teenagers Friendship Skills POPARD Virtual Half-Day Workshop
May 5, 2023 9:00am-12:00pm (for BC School Employees Only)
Many autistic teenagers have the desire to connect with peers but struggle with the how to. In this 3-hour workshop, educators will be introduced to the PEERS Curriculum for School-Based Professionals, an evidence-based social skills curriculum for middle and high school students that focuses on skills related to making and keeping friends and managing peer conflict and rejection. Questions answered during this workshop will include: Which students could benefit from the PEERS program? How do I run a PEERS group? What resources and supports are needed?
Audience: This workshop is for employees of BC School Districts, BC First Nations Schools and BC Independent Schools.
