Description
Sometimes, all a student needs to succeed is a friend.
Every day, thousands of students with autism spectrum disorders (ASD) struggle to stay afloat at school—sometimes bullied, often ostracized, these students could benefit from a peer who models and reinforces socially appropriate behavior and coaches them through challenging schoolwork. This inspirational new book describes how to set up just such a peer-mentoring organization in your school. Kukoff provides:
- Steps for organizing and implementing your own Autism Ambassadors program
- Clear-cut guidelines on what it entails for student “ambassadors”
- More than a hundred specific interventions any student can employ with students with ASD
