Socials skills classes are a rarity despite social skills being essential. I was thankful to have found this one, they had good topics and examples, encouraged participation and I would recommend it for kids that need help developing these skills.

This is a well run and much needed group! My son loves listening to the social mystery and then learning about ways to solve the problem. He always looks forward to the zoom meetings.
