FirstPath Autism’s Steps to Social Success® help teach and promote socially acceptable behavior. These social stories provide the child an explanation of the behavior of others, give coping strategies, and help establish predictable routines and/or expectations. In addition, these steps can help teach the child how to behave in certain situations, and even script potential responses for the child to use in certain situations.

Steps to Social Success are a low-stress way to teach a variety of life skills and situations. And because these stories are personalized, a child can relate and apply the content to his or her individual life and are often a better way to reach your child then a structured lesson.
