Prosper Academy: Social - Understanding Me

  • Location: Metro Community College Sarpy Center 9110 Giles Road La Vista, NE, 68128 United States (map)

Title: Social: Understanding Me

Skill Domain: Social
Cost: $220

Description:
Before we can build strong relationships or confidently advocate for ourselves, we must first understand who we are. Social: Understanding Me guides participants through the process of discovering and defining their sense of self. Through reflective activities, group discussions, and creative exercises based on our Mapping the Parts of Me series, participants will explore their values, interests, strengths, and goals.

Participants will:

  • Be able to identify and describe key aspects of their identity.

  • Demonstrate an understanding of how autism (or neurodivergence) influences their communication, sensory experiences, and relationships.

  • Recognize their personal needs, boundaries, and energy levels, and practice communicating with them clearly using structured self-advocacy statements.

  • Identify different types of relationships and describe how roles, responsibilities, and communication styles vary within each.
