Social Club for Teens
Many teens have difficulties interacting in social settings and making friends. Our group helps facilitate this process through bi-weekly social events.
Structure of Our Club
Members meet at Krippa Family Psychological Services or at an agreed-upon activity site for an activity. This could include movie night, game night, arts/crafts, bowling, or mini golf. These activities will provide real-life experiences outside of a therapeutic setting allowing for social interaction and building confidence.
