The Social Communication Intervention Programme Manual and Resource provide a theoretical rationale, method and over 150 activities for providing specialist level language intervention for these children.

"It is rare to find such a comprehensive programme: the intervention plan is directly linked to child assessment with clear benchmarks for progression. It provides an integrated method for developing language structure, social understanding, and pragmatic skills."
- Courtney Frazier Norbury, Professor of Developmental Language & Communication Disorders at UCL
"SCIP is the first evidence-based program to address the complex nature of social communication disabilities in children with autism, developmental language disorder, and social (pragmatic) communication disorder. The program provides detailed assessment and intervention activities for facilitating language processing, social, and pragmatic knowledge and skills. Guidelines and practical suggestions for the involvement of school staff and parents are included, so that children’s new skills generalise to interactions with peers and family members. In short, SCIP is a must-have for professionals who want to comprehensively support children’s social communication abilities."
