Making Connections

Build social skills to interact and connect with peers. This group program is for Autistic children and teens ages 4-17 who want to develop their social and interpersonal skills. Participants will learn the social skills needed to make connections, and each will develop their skills based on their individual needs and interests.

Topics covered in the curriculum include:

  • Learning more ways to greet peers
  • Building conversation skills with play and activities
  • Engaging in compromise and cooperation
  • Maintaining social relationships
  • Responding to teasing and bullying

This group program is overseen by a Registered Behaviour Analyst and is an eligible expense under Core Clinical Services within the Ontario Autism Program (OAP).

Important Note: By registering for this group on MyCommunityHub (MCH), you secure your spot in the free sample session and will be charged later for the cost of the group session. Sample sessions are required for all groups and help us determine the best match for each participant based on the recommended support ratio and if the program curriculum fits their needs.
