Social Groups at Clear Speech, Inc.











Have you ever paused to consider social interaction and the enormous role it plays in our everyday lives? From childhood to adulthood we have social interaction as we play, work, and cooperate with others. The ability to interact socially enhances the richness of our lives and even, in part, determines some of our success.

While children can pick up social skills naturally from their environment, many children can make tremendous strides in this area in a social group setting, where the foundation can be laid and put into practice by trained, caring facilitators. Social groups can be especially beneficial for Children with developmental delays, physical disabilities, autism, or other diagnoses such as ADHD or ADD

At Clear Speech Inc., we have had the privilege of watching the growth and bonding of five of our children in our first social group, which began last fall. Clear Speech founder, Lorioux Loup, enthusiastically says of this group, “These kids are excited to see each other [at each meeting]…I love it!” She credits Clear Speech’s Gabriela, Wendy, and Cristy for facilitating the group in a natural setting filled with teachable moments, while focusing on music, literature, and art.

Want more information about social groups at Clear Speech, Inc? We are currently forming new groups, click HERE for contact information. We seek to place children in groups where they will benefit the most, with consideration to their age and abilities. We feature smaller group sizes for an excellent ratio of trained facilitators to clients. Come join the fun while working on necessary foundational social skills, after all, as Lorioux says, “We’re all here, and everybody needs a friend!”
