Social Personal Skills
My Journey with Asperger's- Social Skills Needed to Transitioning Smoothly into Adulthood




The Committee for Children’s Helping Everyone Thrive states, “People with strong social-emotional skills are better able to cope with everyday challenges and benefit academically, professionally, and socially. From effective problem-solving to self-discipline, from impulse control to emotion management and more, social and emotional learning (SEL) provides a foundation for positive, long-term effects on kids, adults, and communities.” These sessions will explore some of the following:

- Self-Awareness

- Self-Management

- Problem-Solving to self-discipline
