Fostering social well-being for youth with diverse needs
The Casa Colina Children’s Services Center offers weekly social skills
programs for children and teens with social delays. Led by licensed occupational
therapists and/or speech-language pathologists and assistants, our groups
help participants to better engage with peers, working with them on age-appropriate
skills like problem-solving, communication, and conflict resolution, to
help your child improve social skills and thrive with peers.
We offer three levels of social skills training. Each group is divided
as necessary to achieve age-appropriate sub-groups that ensure your child
will be placed with kids closer in age and ability level:

years old. All program levels consist of eight weekly sessions that focus on:
Adventure Together gives participants ages 3 to 16 access to diverse, age-appropriate
leisure activities that promote improved quality of life through social

consist of ten weekly sessions that focus on:
Teen Scene is a social and life skills program designed for teens and young
adults between 13 and 22 years of age. Program levels consist of 12 weekly
