Skillstreaming is a prosocial learning program designed to help children and youth learn positive ways to have their needs met. Skillstreaming the Elementary School Child employs a four-part training approach—modeling, role-playing, performance feedback, and generalization—to teach essential prosocial skills to elementary school students.
