Teaching Social Skills to Youth is Boys Town's trademark manual, offering the step-by-step component behaviours to 183 skills. The skills range from basic to complex and have been updated to reflect the challenges today's youth face. The book explains techniques for teaching individually or in groups and also shows you how to plan skill-based treatment interventions for youth with difficult problems such as substance abuse, aggression, running away, depression or attention deficits.

This third edition still includes hallmark treatment examples, demonstrating how and when to teach the skills. New insights and information, based on the latest research findings, have been added. Also added are details about multi-tiered approaches to social and emotional learning, and how skills relate to executive function.

The appendices highlight what skills to include when you want to focus on social and emotional competency, executive function processes, behaviour problems and problem situations. An index helps you locate the skills that are appropriate for specific problem behaviours.

The enclosed CD offers printable posters for each skill.
