SOCIAL SKILLS
(Asperger's Syndrome)
Social skills of people with autism will improve when they are provided with strategies that will improve their understanding of
social situations and give them specific behaviors to use when they
are interacting with others. Two such strategies, Social Stories and
Comic Strip Conversations, have been developed by Carol Gray of Jenison Public Schools in Michigan. Instructions for implementing
these strategies are available in books which are available though the Autism Society of North Carolina
Bookstore (ASNC) (1-800-442-2762) or through Future Education (1-800-489-0727).
