“Adulting” Skill Development Classes for Ages 18+

December 26, 2020 by Sharon Marie

Virtual Support Group for Adults with Autism and Fragile X in Massachusetts (2)

Virtual Series, through March 8th, 2021, with an Adult Support Center in Somerville. Participants will work to identify and create a highly individualized and sustainable personal routine. The goal is to be able to continue on with the routine they’ve chosen, and to adapt it to small and larger changes in circumstances.
* This course offers a staffing ratio of between 3:1 and 4:1. 
Participants will explore: 
· Creating a daily schedule (alarms, reminders, etc.)
· Personal hygiene: Teeth-brushing, showering, shaving, etc.
· Meal-prepping: Finding recipes, gathering ingredients, putting the meal/snack together, and cleaning-up
· Monitoring and managing screen time, etc.
* The module alternates the weekly focus from evening to morning routines, considering the skills that fall within each time of day.
* The participants themselves largely decide which skills we look at up close.
* Input from families and caregivers is welcome.
* The last half hour of each session will cover stress management, which represents an important part of being an adult.
* There will also be strategies for handling the tougher times.
* The goal is for participants to gain a practical, sustainable daily routine and the know-how to follow it and modify it when needed. “
FEES APPLY – class size will be limited to eight participants. Private funds or DDS funding (pending DDS approval) may be used to pay for the workshop.
