Critical Core is a social skills program that utilizes a Tabletop Role-playing game (similar to Dungeons and Dragons) to motivate participants to actively engage in social situations and to grow through their connections with others. This is a collaborative game in which players and the facilitator work together to create a story. It is a safe and supportive environment in which players are able to practice communicating, problem-solving, and regulation as their characters progress through a series of challenges that will ultimately lead to them becoming heroes.
The overall goal of Critical Core is generalizable learning from fully engaged play while respecting individuals and building relationships.
We encourage growth in the following areas:
- Increase regulation
- Increase collaboration
- Increase motor and cognitive planning
- Improve perspective taking
- Increase access to pretend play development for related skill-building
