Making Friends Social Group

The Making Friends Social Skills Group is an instructional group focusing on social/pragmatic language skills and positive peer interactions. We are dedicated to providing quality intervention to enable your child to socially engage more successfully. The children who currently participate in our group range in diagnoses, with the predominant ones being ADHD and social pragmatic language disorder. The children in our group are engaging in their school curriculum at or above grade level and have grade level or advanced language skills. The commonality in need is the challenges with "reading" social cues, understanding the "hidden" social landscape, being flexible in interactions with others, using their advanced language skills to engage more meaningfully with peers, self-advocate, express emotions, and navigate conflict successfully.

​

We currently provide services for children from age 4 through 3rd grade. We are conveniently located off of the Fort Washington exchange of the PA Turnpike.

We run three, five-week sessions per year. All sessions are co-taught by an experienced and highly trained ASHA certified and PA licensed speech-language pathologists as well as a PA certified teacher. Children are divided into one of the following age groups: Pre-K-K, Early Elementary and Older Elementary.
