SUMMARY;LANGUAGE=en-us:Social Skills Training: An Evidence-Based Practice for Individuals with Autism
DESCRIPTION:Social skills training is a hot topic when discussing how to support individuals with autism. As one of the defining characteristics of autism\, social communication challenges often limit or inhibit effective social interactions with others. These interactions can include\, but not limited to making friends\, participating in group conversations\, and sharing information with others in socially acceptable ways. In 2014\, social skills straining (SST) was added to the list of 27 evidence-based practices established by the National Professional Development Center on Autism Spectrum Disorder (NPDC). The list identifies practices used with individuals with autism that have an evidence-base to support its effectiveness.This course will explain social skills training\, share the evidence supporting its effectiveness\, explain the process for implementation and discuss what makes it an effective practice when teaching social skills to individuals with autism. Participants will be given the opportunity to practice the specific skills related to SST\, brainstorm with others on what SST can look like\, and develop a list of ways SST can be incorporated into current supports being provided to individuals with autism.&nbsp\;
