Why are group programs so important?
All those wonderful skills your children are learning during their regular sessions can be fine-tuned and practiced in a safe and welcoming environment, with kids who are matched to their abilities. Groups are fun, effective, and an integral part of your child's therapy journey. Research shows that social skills groups improve social communication in school-aged children and adolescents (Gosling, Cartigny, 2022)*.
