Empower uses scientific methods of ABA Therapy to teach social skills within peer social groups.  

The goal is to pair children on the spectrum with other children, for fun and reinforcing activities. It makes social interaction more enjoyable and encourages friendships.

A technician will accompany the children on the spectrum to monitor the individualized treatment plan's target goals. The therapist will help the children by prompting them to interact in appropriate situations. The social groups have a fun and upbeat environment to boost the results.
