[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would be wary of Alvord and Baker for an HFA girl. We tried them and they were not able to work with us to place our DD in an appropriate social skills group. Be clear about what you want and be a n top of them to ensure your DD gets what she needs. [/quote] What was the barrier? What made it difficult for them to place your DD? I’m not understanding.[/quote] We asked that our DD be in a group, ideally just girls around her age but at least coed. She had already done a few resilience groups so we were after a social skills group of her same age peers to learn how to carry on conversations, etc. She was placed in a group of very nice kids 18-24 months younger (still in ES rather than MS) doing resilience building. The only reason it was coed was because she was in it. So they did not meet a single criterion that we had requested. It felt like they just wanted to fill their group rather than really work with our DD. [/quote]
