Supporting Young People with Social Relationships

A two-hour workshop for parents and carers of autistic teenagers on supporting social relationships.

Perth Autism Support hosts this evening session for parents and carers of autistic teenagers, focusing on how differences in communication can affect social relationships. The session explores a strengths-based approach, covering theory, lived experiences, practical support strategies and group discussion. Attendees are helped to develop skills and set motivating, realistic goals with their young people to build positive relationships. Participants are expected to have completed the organisation's Practical Understanding of Autism programme beforehand.
