The Son-Rise Program Developmental Model is based
on the understanding that the ability to socialize,
create and sustain substantial interactive relationships
with parents, siblings, peers, etc., is the fundamental
challenge that children and adults on the autistic
spectrum face. It is important to focus on all areas
of a child’s development yet the first and foremost
skill to focus on is social development, the ability
to socially interact. By focusing on this area, we
are able to create the greatest possibility for change
As with any skills or abilities that
you want your child to acquire, clear stages of development
are essential to knowing what to teach and when to
teach it (i.e. learning to read has clear stages of
development from sounding out letters to reading books
independently.) Social development from autism to
a socially successful child/adult is no different.
In the PDF below we explain the stages of social development
(including easy to read Social Developmental Charts)
and how to create curriculum so that you focus on
the skills most appropriate for your child’s
next step in social development
