Unfortunately, this workshop has been cancelled – we apologise for any inconvenience caused. It will be held again in August 2022 – click here to register.  

Everyone has the right to belong and to make meaningful connections with those around them. Social relationships and friendships provide us with experience in managing our own emotions, responding to the feelings of others, collaborating, negotiating and problem-solving. Children with Autism often require support to develop the skills they need to make and keep friends. Join us as we look at how to build on your child’s strengths to help them navigate and benefit from the social dynamics of friendship in high school. 

In this workshop you will:

• Learn about social skills and how they relate to Autism
• Explore strategies and supports to help your child develop the skills needed to make and keep friends.

Intended Participants:

This workshop is for parent and relatives of children with Autism ages 12 to 17 years.
