This book is essential reading for any clinician or researcher working with teens with autism spectrum disorders. This parent-assisted intervention for teens is based on a comprehensive, evidence-based, 14-week program at UCLA’s Semel Institute for Neuroscience and Human Behavior, the manualization of the popular UCLA PEERS Program, and the success of the Children’s Friendship Training (Routledge, 2002) manual for children.


After reviewing techniques designed to help parents and therapists tailor the manual to the needs of the teens with whom they are working, the text moves on to the individual treatment sessions and strategies for tackling issues such as developing conversational skills, choosing friends, using humor, get-togethers, teasing, bullying, gossiping, and handling disagreements. Each session chapter includes handouts, homework assignments, descriptions of what to expect (and how to handle challenges in delivering the intervention), and customized tips for both parents and therapists.

Social Skills for Teenagers with Developmental and Autism Spectrum Disorders: The PEERS Treatment Manual PDF

This book is great for developing a program that was developed by UCLA to help children who lack social skills. It basically lays out everything very clearly and in laymans terms. This program has already been a success at UCLA so if you're thinking about creating a program like this at your school or work, this book could work for you.

This book is incredible~ All of the programs are well written and the parent homework sections is a valuable tool. As a BCBA and the mother of a adolescent with Autism, I think this book is the best out there.
