The BSR program is a systematic research based social skills program that teaches social skills and activates social cognition in youth on the autism spectrum. The program allows parents and practitioners to stop "chasing" problem behaviors, and instead address the underlying causes of problem behaviors and social interaction difficulties. The BSR program highlights the simultaneous integration between social cognitive processing and the performance of discrete social skills. To reflect this in practice, the BSR program provides over 40 strategies to teach social skills and strategies to teach and activate social-cognitive processing in both children and adolescents.
