The Art of Friendship Social Skills Program is now enrolling new children and teens for fall social skills groups. Our program now offers sixteen different groups for various ages and levels of functioning. New groups are constantly being formed as the need develops. We group children both by age and level of social development after a careful  assessment of the child’s needs. Groups are organized into the following approximate age ranges:

3-5 year olds  (art and play-based)

5-7 year olds  (group art projects and activity-based)

8-10 year olds  (group art projects and activity-based)

11-14 year olds  (conversation and recreational activity-based)

15-19 year olds  (conversation and verbally based)

NEW! YOUNG ADULTS  AGE 20-29 (social, conversation, and life skills)

A fun, creative and child-friendly atmosphere is created by licensed professional counselors who specialize in the treatment of children with neuro-developmental differences.
