Introducing FRIENDSHIP CLUB

A Social Opportunity for Shy Middle Schoolers

Thank you for your interest in our upcoming Friendship Group.

Two high school interns have designed this unique peer-to-peer support model with my support. Interns conducted structured interviews with professionals from six different disciplines who offer social skills training groups, as well as a small group of shy teens, and engaged in a literature review of causes for shyness. One intern has also been a peer model in a social learning group for teens for a couple of years.

We require a commitment of attendance to all sessions (meeting dates) as group identity is built sequentially and over time, as well as this creates continuity with topics.

We are seeking 6-8 participants.

The group will be hosted at Sensory Solutions, which is an Occupational Therapy clinic. The open space allows for fun and active activities but no sports will be played.

If you’re interested in proceeding with registration, we’d set up a brief call to allow us to learn more about your child to ensure good fit. Please feel free to send me any other questions at anamaria@thrive-hcfc.org.
