Who is it for?

We serve children who have difficulty communicating and connecting with others. Often these children have been diagnosed with one or more of the following:

• Asperger's Syndrome
• Autism
• Language processing disorder
• Nonverbal learning disability
• Pervasive Developmental Disorder (PDD)
• Social learning disability

Your child is, of course, an individual and not a diagnostic label. So what do these individuals have in common? These are some of the challenges that the Friendship Network for Children can help with:

• Anxiety and confusion
• Over-sensitivity
• Difficulty making friends
• Problems with communication
• Behaviors that are not easily understood
• Strong emotions that are difficult for the child - and others - to identify
