Our Classes asperger syndrome Houston
Texas autism social skills social
Through specialized classes, led by trained "social coaches," students are
taught specific strategies, problem-solving techniques and social solutions to
help them navigate more effectively through a complex social world.
Classes focus on social "understanding" and life preparation skills through
step-by-step instruction, role-playing, hands-on practice and interactive
community outings.
Classes are grouped according to age/grade
and level of need and are limited to 4-5 students. Students of any age may also
be seen individually if they are not yet ready for group classes. Fall
semester classes run from late August through early November - excluding Labor
Day. Spring semester classes run from late January
through April - excluding holidays and spring break.
Current class schedule.
Younger Students
Students, ages 5-12, are placed into our P.A.L.S.
program - Perspective-Taking, Awareness and Life Strategies. The class
curriculum varies per class/session and is individualized as much as possible to
meet student and parent goals.
Teens
Students, ages 13-19, are grouped according to skill level and specific
need and focus largely on teen-related issues such as managing high school, dating, job/college
preparation and independent living skills.
Adults
FOCUS Initiative also works with young adults, usually on an
individual basis, to help them learn independent living skills, job readiness,
college study skills, personal relationship strategies, organizational and time
management techniques. Adult

Typical class lessons may include:
New classes begin each semester and meet 1 hour per week for 12 weeks at our
Stafford office or in the community as scheduled. Home school groups may
be arranged during school hours.
Before students are placed in a class, an informal skills
assessment is conducted, at no-charge, to determine appropriate placement.
