Peers®
PEERS® (Program for the Education and Enrichment of Relational Skills) is an internationally recognized and scientifically validated social skills training program. It is considered one of the few programs in the field of social skills with strong research support regarding its effectiveness.
The program is aimed at people of various age groups—from preschoolers to young adults—and is designed for individuals with neurodevelopmental disorders, such as Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), as well as for individuals experiencing anxiety disorders, depression, or other social-emotional difficulties.
The program was developed at the University of California, Los Angeles, at the specialized PEERS® clinic, by Elizabeth Laugeson. Today, it has been translated into more than 12 languages and is used in over 125 countries worldwide.
At SKKA A LIFE PLAN, we constantly strive to incorporate modern, scientifically proven approaches that enhance the quality of our services. In this context, we are particularly pleased to offer a program with the international recognition and effectiveness of PEERS®, contributing to the development of essential social skills and the improvement of the daily lives of the individuals we support.
