Greetings,

My name is Mark and I have been working with individuals on the autism spectrum for the past two years. This summer I am putting together a social group for male teenagers aged 14-18 with high functioning autism/Asperger's.

In the social group my goals are to focus on:

1) Self Advocacy
2) Fitness/Nutrition
3) Self Defense/ Anti-Bullying Techniques
4) Social Skills
5) Career Goals

The majority of my experience comes from growing up with a family member with a developmental disability. From this experience I have developed specialized programming for the above five goals and helped establish a still thriving social community for teenagers with developmental disabilities in my hometown.

In the last two years I have worked as a behavior interventionist with students across the spectrum under BCBA consultation.

Currently I work as an SEA in the Burnaby School District full time in a secondary school, and I also do one on one life coaching with a high functioning teenager with Asperger's.

I am currently training for my level one Coaching Certification in the Crossfit methodology. I have extensive training in the art of Krav Maga, a reality based self defense system.

The lesson plans and course content will be supervised by a behavior consultant and will be taking place from July to August.

Thanks for your consideration.
