Nation and Worldwide Organizations:

  • All Kinds of Minds
a non-profit web site that was founded by Dr. Mel Levine and Charles Schwab. The organization's mission "helps students who struggle with
learning, measurably improve their success in school and life by providing programs that integrate educational, scientific, and clinical expertise."

The web site covers a wide range of learning issues including a section on social skills. Here is an excerpt from Learning to Relate to Others
from the All Kinds of Minds web site:

"School is a social experience. Besides needing to communicate and behave appropriately during classroom activities, children interact with
one another constantly. Developing social abilities is an often overlooked yet important contributor to a child's well being. Children's success
with others is influenced by their social cognition - their ability to communicate and act in socially acceptable ways."
