PEERS (Program for the Education and Enrichment of Relational Skills) is an evidenced-based social skills curriculum for adolescents. This curriculum was piloted in Delaware during the 2014-2015 school year with nine school-based teams of facilitators. Data was collected on implementation fidelity and student outcomes. Results showed that groups were implemented with fidelity and that students showed an overall improvement in relational skills.Back to Session: Poster Session: Behavior Supports & Mental Health
