What is social skills development?
Learning how to best communicate, understand, and get along with people in your family and community. Ideally, social skills development…
- Teaches you how to understand what people are feeling by paying attention to how they act.
- Encourages you to make eye contact when speaking with others.
- Helps you to communicate your feelings and talk about other’s feelings.
- Helps you to be successful when at work and when you are in the community.

Social skills development means that you will…
- Know what behaviors are acceptable in public and how to interact with others in different situations.
- Know what it means to have a healthy, safe relationship with others.
- Know what is appropriate to do and say in public.
