The PEERS Curriculum for School Based Professionals

“This book is so very timely. The well-known and widely used PEERS® social skills training program has been adopted in many clinical settings. By taking the program into schools, and also demonstrating the effectiveness of the program via research studies, Laugeson and her team have produced a manual that the education sector has been asking for. It will be widely adopted and deserves to be so.”

―Tony Charman, PhD, chair in clinical child psychology at the Institute of Psychiatry, King’s College London, UK

“The PEERS® program is evidence-based, accessible to school-based practitioners, and enjoyable for the students! We have needed something like this for a long time, so it’s great that this is now available. This program has clear potential to make a positive difference in the lives of students with ASD.”
