PEERS® Social Skills program at All Saints’ College
PEERS® stands for Program for the Education and Enrichment of Relational Skills, and is an internationally acclaimed, evidence-based social skills group program for adolescents and young adults with social challenges. Originally developed by Dr Elizabeth Laugeson at the University of California (UCLA), the program has a strong evidence-base for use with adolescents with ASD, ADHD, anxiety, depression, learning difficulties or, indeed, anyone experiencing social challenges. PEERS® assists teens with social challenges who are interested in learning ways to help them make and keep friends by teaching them how to navigate common social challenges to form more positive friendships. Overall, we feel that PEERS® will help students with social challenges develop skills which will lead to improved self-efficacy and wellbeing.
