Helping Our Young Learners Develop Friendships
 

Alpine Learning Group’s Peer Modeling Program provides some preschoolers with autism the opportunity to learn from typically developing peers. As part of the peer modeling program, typical preschoolers attend Alpine Learning Group for highly structured play interaction sessions. The program is designed to foster learner’s attention to, and learning from, typical peers with the guidance of skilled instructors.

 

"The services provided at Alpine Learning Group are comprehensive and effective. Consumers of Alpine’s programs are fortunate to have excellent data collection and analysis systems that set the occasion for truly individualized decision making."

- Dr. Kevin Brothers
