Adventure Club by Center for Social Dynamics: Building Friendships Through ABA Therapy

CONCORD, Calif., Oct. 1, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Center for Social Dynamics (CSD) is proud to share the transformative success of its Adventure Club, a program combining Applied Behavior Analysis (“ABA“) therapy with themed social activities designed to maximize learning for clients with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). Over the past year, Adventure Club blossomed into a community where clients and specialists work together and grow socially. Learn more about CSD’s Adventure Club here.

Key Highlights

• Stories of Friendship: Exciting outcomes of Adventure Club include the ongoing success stories from CSD clients, caregivers, and Adventure Club Guides. “Just a few weeks ago, two clients hit it off during their sessions. They asked their moms if they could stay in touch and traded numbers!” said Alexander Beatty, Adventure Club Guide.
• Social Skills Development: Clients work on their goals and practice with their peers through themed activities like “Buccaneer’s Bounty Bingo” and “Dino Dig Sensory Experience,” fostering collaboration and connection.
• Improved attendance: Clients can make-up missed sessions at a weekend Adventure Club, which has improved make-up rates by 45%, which benefits client outcomes.

The program’s impact is more profound than anticipated, with clients forming meaningful friendships that continue outside the program. “For the child who made a new friend for the first time, or the young adult who emerged as a mentor to their peers, Adventure Club can be a life-changing experience, and we are humbled to play even a small part in their journeys,” said a Mary Whitlock, Vice President of California Region.

By participating in a supportive community like Adventure Club, clients build social skills and tap into the power of collaboration. This sense of community provides a foundation for growth that extends well beyond the program, empowering each individual to thrive.
