The GUILD Social club aims to create a conducive environment for teens and young adults with all abilities to interact wherein they learn how to
- communicate effectively with their friends, and
- learn the intricate social rules necessary for making and sustaining friendship.
We aim to achieve our goals by:
- Providing structure and predictability
- Break down abstract social concepts into concrete actions
- Simplify language and group children by language level
- Work in pairs or groups with cooperation and partnership encouraged
- Provide multiple and varied learning opportunities
- Foster self-awareness and self-esteem
- Providing opportunities for practice so that skills are used beyond the group in real life settings
