Child Ages: Adolescents in middle school and high school

The Center For Communication & Learning in partnership with Alliance Pediatrics is now accepting applications for our PEERS® Program for Adolescents. PEERS FLEX is a unique program for adolescents with social challenges in middle and high school. PEERS FLEX integrates the innovative UCLA curriculum + Social Thinking Methodology + Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. PEERS® is an evidence-based treatment program developed by UCLA to teach teens with social communication needs how to make and keep friends. Through didactic learning instruction, role-play, and “opportunities to practice” teens will learn the steps necessary to foster interpersonal relationships. The PEERS model includes a social coaching component for parents and family members.
