We are now enrolling for PEERS Series Program, an evidence-based, caregiver-assisted social skills intervention for teens and young adults.

PEERS is a 14 week manualized series for teens and young adults working on advanced social skills in order to make and keep friends.

Parent participation is required the last 10 minutes of each session and outside of session time to support clients with homework assignments.

Those enrolled in ACES PEERS Groups will be placed in small groups of similar-aged peers and will learn:

• How to use appropriate conversational skills

• How to be a good host during get-togethers

• How to make phone calls to friends

• How to choose appropriate friends

• How to handle arguments and disagreements

• How to handle rumor and gossip

• And so much more!

*Note: An additional screening is required before client is placed into the PEERS program. For this reason, early enrollment is encouraged.

Please contact your supervisor today to see if your child would benefit from this program and for more information.
