The first chapter gives an overview of why social skills are of paramount importance to clients of therapeutic recreation services. The second chapter focuses on the assessment of social skills in order to provide an intervention program aimed at improving those skills. The third chapter provides more information on the provision of intervention programs aimed at improving social skills. The activities are provided to supplement, not replace, good, creative, systematic program design. They are intended to provide a catalyst for offering high-quality, consistent programming that aims at achieving client outcomes.
