PEERS® Social Skills Workshops
Monthly workshops for kids, teens, and their parents
What is PEERS®?
PEERS® is an evidence-based social skills program developed at UCLA that teaches kids and teens the real-world skills of making and keeping friends. Our monthly PEERS® workshops make it easier to fit into family life: each Saturday workshop focuses on one skill from the PEERS® curriculum, and you can register for any session on its own, with no multi-week commitment.
These are interactive workshops. Students learn and practice the skill with peers through role plays, games, and guided activities, while parents join a concurrent session to learn how to coach and support that same skill at home.
How the workshops work
Choose your sessions. Each workshop stands on its own. Register for one, a few, or all of them.
Students and parents learn side by side. Kids practice with peers while parents learn the same skill as their child's "social coach."
One Saturday a month. Each workshop is 75 minutes and is held at our office at 9939 Hibert St., Suite 202, San Diego.

Upcoming PEERS Groups
Parent/Caregiver Support
While students are meeting, parents and caregivers will also meet in their own separate group. Every student who joins PEERS® will also have a parent or caregiver join as their "social coach." Each week, social coaches will learn the same material as their student and receive guidance on how to support them through PEERS®. Social coaches practice skills at home together with their student and help them understand what they're doing well and what to work on, and support them with planning and strategizing about how to apply these skills successfully in their everyday lives.
