Biala Besties - Program of Support

For ages 6-9.

Biala Social Groups provide a supported space for neurodivergent children to connect with each other while exploring and developing their own communication, social and regulation needs.

The Biala Besties group  is based on the child’s developmental needs and preference of engaging in social interactions  and includes typical activities such as Arts and Craft and dance based games (i.e., musical statues)

Group Goal:

· Assist children to explore and develop their preferred social and communication styles in a supported group setting.

· Support children to practise advocating for their own social and emotional needs.

Expected Outcomes:

· Children will be able to build their understanding of their own emotions and regulation with therapist support.
