Social Groups inspiration

The intention of this page is to inspire you to run groups based on the interests of group participants - and within your own comfort zone.

In the video, I chat about some of the influences on the way that I run social groups. (I hope I have accurately reflected knowledge that I have received from other professionals but if not the fault is all mine.)

Here are some websites of the people who I mention who have inspired me:

Crisalida

Connie Buckingham - now living in Hobart, Connie is passing on her knowledge and experience through a package called Social Stencil

Kelly Mahler - interoception

Social Thinking - including Incredible Flexible You and GPS Play rating

Social Competence - Chris Chapparo

Lindsay Stirling - including Social Survival Guide for Teens

Karen Stagnitti - Learn to Play
