Get Together with COLLAGE Activity-Based Programs

For Individuals Age 4 Through Adult Ages

COLLAGE is a professionally guided activity-based therapy program for people seeking a place to learn and to practice social skills in an emotionally safe environment. In COLLAGE, groups are led by occupational therapists who specialize in analyzing activities and using them therapeutically. Through activity, group members are helped toward achieving the individual social goals each has established. Individuals in COLLAGE learn to adopt a positive and realistic view of their friend-making and interacting skills, and to take responsibility for modifying their own social behaviors.

COLLAGE Occupational Therapy Programs help social competence flourish by:

Providing weekly activity groups
Offering individual social coaching
Building friend-making and interaction skills
Helping people "catch on" to social cues
Encouraging people to "get" the viewpoint of others
