Chill is coming to Toowoomba & the Gold Coast!
We are very excited to announce that due to popular demand, Code Blue for Autism will be launching their Chill Foundation program in Toowoomba & the Gold Coast in 2022!
So what is Chill?
Chill is a strength-based social skills coaching program for young adults 18+ on the autism spectrum.
What is Chill Foundation?
Chill Foundation is a ten-week program (one 2.5 hour workshop per week for ten weeks).
This program covers fundamental social skills or Chill Skills as we like to call them, including but not limited to…
The rule of conversations
Trading information
Finding common interests
Body language and boundaries
Voice volume & eye contact
Good questions to ask
How to join & leave a conversation
Group conversations

Empathy
Supported by peer mentors, our interactive workshops use video illustration, peer demonstrations, role-play and social situation rehearsals. The program uses popular mediums of drama, music, film and social media to engage participants in a fun and creative experience.
Participants are streamed into workshops according to their current skills and capacity. Participant streaming maximizes the opportunity for our young adults to make connections with their peers during the program and establish new friendships.
