Summer is just around the corner. MGB Services is offering the following programs and services this summer:
Home Programs
Concerned about maintaining your child’s skills throughout the summer?
MGB offers home programs for academic, social, and behavioral concerns.
Social Skills Groups
Looking for an opportunity to have your child interact with peers and utilize social skills? MGB summer social skills group will be offered on June 21, June 28, July 12, July 19, and August 2. Call for more information.
Buddy/Peer Play Social Skills Program
This program is designed for children ages 3-10. The focus is on play skills for everyday games and activities. This social skill program is taught in the natural environment of your home by a trained MGB team member.
Middle School Social Skills Program
This program was created for children nearing or entering middle school. Preteens may have attained many skills through various therapies and programs, but still find it challenging to have a successful outing in the community. The program focuses on teaching social skills needed in the community by a trained MGB team social skills facilitator. An MGB social skills facilitator will apply the skills taught in different community outings. We understand that for many families simple outing such as dinner out or a trip to the library can become a very stressful unsuccessful experience. We want to help families change how they view their outings and experiences.
Speech Therapy
MGB offers speech therapy services through our SLP, Eileen Pearlman. Speech services are provided in the natural setting of your home.
Family and Individual Therapy
Counseling services for families, siblings, and individuals. MGB also offers counseling services for ADHD, ODD, ASD, Anxiety, OCD, and Developmental Disorders.
Special leisure/recreation consultation
Interested in placing your child in a park district or recreational summer program, but concerned about how they will be integrated? MGB offers consultation and assistance to program staff in structuring and facilitating a program to make it a positive fun experience for your child.
Other Services offered
