Join STAR Institute occupational therapists in this on-demand video course, as they provide parents strategies for supporting children on playdates, at the playground, and during parties.

Many parents report that some of their primary challenges are how to support their child for social success. Studies show that some of the most important skills for later success are based on social capacities. Elements like cooperation, self-control, confidence, independence, and communication. These are keys to social and life success. STAR Institute occupational therapist, Vincentia Ferrari, MOT, OTR/L and speech and language pathologist, Carrie Dishlip, MS, SLP-CCC help parents problem solve these challenges by using the framework of A SECRET by Dr. Lucy Jane Miller and Doreit Bialer.
