College Prep

Do you know a student who is academically ready for college but struggles socially?

Our social learning groups and individual sessions meet one to two times per week under the guidance of an experienced, licensed and certified professional. College Prep groups are designed for students entering or enrolled in college.

Groups address the practical skills necessary to navigate the complex social demands of the college environment including but not limited to:

Roommate expectations, problem-solving strategies, and communication strategies
Campus life - getting involved, navigating "the scene", and social networking
Friendship skills - choosing a group that's right for you, presenting "your best self", friendship problem solving skills
Conversational skills - initiating conversation, entering group conversation, keeping the conversation going, closing the conversation, and understanding non-verbal language
Interviewing skills - college admissions
Healthy choices - facing the many choices of campus life and independence
Time management - how to create and manage a plan
Self-advocacy skills - knowing when to ask for help and knowing who the appropriate supports are for specified needs, and building self-esteem and confidence
