This Applied Clinical Project was designed as a Social Skills group for school age boys. The project was born out of a desire to address the high number of behavioral referrals received by fifth grade boys at a local elementary school. To accomplish this goal a social skills group, was implemented. The group sought to encourage students to become responsible, respectful, cooperative, self-confident, motivated and well-groomed young men. In an effort to change behaviors and provide characteristics of high self-esteem the students were taught social skills which included foundation skills in self-esteem, grooming, cooperation and giving appropriate feedback to others. The formulation, process and results of this group experience will be discussed.
