guy talk program at center for social in narberth, pa

Understanding the complex feelings, physical changes, increased social expectations and “hidden rules” of adolescence can be particularly challenging for boys diagnosed with social learning needs such as ADHD, Asperger’s or higher-independence autism spectrum diagnoses. This population of boys needs much more comprehensive information around these topics yet very few receive the education they need. Guy Talk is a fun, interactive program taught from a social learning perspective in order to help boys increase their social understanding while providing parents with the education they need to communicate about these topics.
