Social Skills Summer Camp

Social Skills Summe< FONT face="Comic Sans MS" color=#993399 size=6>r Camp

An 8 week program starting June 11 - August 3, 2007

Therapy SPOT Inc. has designed a summer camp program that addresses social pragmatics, provides peer socialization, and academic skill maintenance within a fun and safe environment.  Our program is geared towards meeting the social needs of children with High Functioning Autism, PDD, and Asperger's Syndrome.

It is a 5.5 hour program (8:45am to 2:15pm) Monday through Friday for 8 weeks.  The camp is run by 2 or more therapists (OT/ST) at all times, making our camp uniquely fun, yet therapeutic.  These occupational and speech therapists are trained in pragmatic language and social skill development.   This social skills camp is limited 10-12 campers, ages 5-8. A smaller group size is to ensure individualized attention and to allow for successful peer interaction.
