See what other parents have said about our Social Skills Groups:

"Our kid made incredible progress that I firmly believe saved her at a critical period of social development."

"The therapists really made it fun for the kids. They connected with the right words, strong facial expressions/gestures, and made the class fun!"

"My son responded very well to the program. I think he will miss the meetings with his group."

"I have been a bit removed from my son's programs lately, and it is good to re-establish the ABA mindset. And it is good to see first-hand how new challenges arise and that we can continue to support relevant development."

"Having parents participate was a great part of this program. It helped with homework and made me more aware of the skills that were taught and practiced."

This camp is a fun, engaging way to provide therapeutic support in a unique, recreational setting. Kids will have a great time and learn meaningful skills that will last a lifetime.

PEERS Social Skills Camp |

June 11th-22nd

Developed as an addition and complement to our ongoing Social Skills programs throughout the school year, The Center will now offer a Social Skills Camp. The camp program will also use the UCLA PEERS program curriculum and is designed to provide both student and parent with skills that will facilitate the acquisition, maintenance, and generalization of social skills. We will include fun, summer-camp activities that will have campers excited to come back each day!

Our two-week camp will include one day each week of parent inclusion. Each class will have a limited number of students to ensure positive interactions and there will be at least three therapists to guide the daily sessions.

Use this summer break to acquire and practice positive and meaningful social skills to ensure summertime fun and a smooth back-to-school transition.

Ages: 8-12 years

Session: M-F 9am-12pm

Led by Sally Borella, Behavioral Consultant at The Center.

Enroll your campers now.
