Social Skills and Play Dates for Children on the Spectrum

Centre for Autism Services Alberta

In this workshop, we will discuss strategies to support and teach a variety of social skills, how to set up a play date, and how to best support a play date. This workshop is designed for parents of children who have basic joint attention (i.e. purposefully sharing focus with others) and requesting skills.
