"My twelve year old son, Mitchell, has attended about six of the social skills groups since we first found out about them. John Anderson, the director of the group, has been wonderful in helping ease "first meeting jitters" and getting the kids interacting and having fun. I also like that he gives feedback after the group about my child's experience, and even posts some pictures of the group from that evening!
I love that these groups are on a drop-in basis, even though Mitchell likes them so much he's decided to attend every one. Based on this wonderful experience, I'm also signing him up for the summer camp!"
