Social Communication Workshop: Strategies for Exiting Conversations

August 26 @ 5:00 pm 6:30 pm

How do you end or leave a conversation when it’s time to go? In this workshop, we’ll talk about strategies you can learn and practice to help you leave a conversation or end a conversation in tactful ways whether that’s through one-on-one or group conversations.

In this workshop, you will gain the skills and knowledge to:

  • Discuss strategies for exiting conversations
  • Recognizing disinterest in communication
  • Managing rejection & moving forward
  • Setting the stage for future engagements

This session is one of several drop-in workshops we offer that are designed to provide Autistic or neurodivergent individuals opportunities to learn and practice essential social communication skills in a safe and welcoming setting.

Each 90-minute workshop covers a different aspect of social communication, providing information, tips and strategies intended to help in day-to-day social situations. There is no cost to attend these sessions and you can just drop-in. Attend them all or the ones that seem interesting to you.
