  • Self Advocacy Skills such as:
    • requesting an item or activity
    • communicating a need
    • requesting help

    • problem-solving
    • expressing opinions
    • describing their boundaries
    • asserting themselves

This group program is ideal for children aged 5 to 8 years, and looking to explore language and culture.
