How Does it Work?

This program is intended for families of neurodivergent youth, youth that struggle with anxiety or emotional regulation, or any child age 4-14 who might benefit from the structure of having a program that helps them set goals and celebrate their progress.

  • Parents/caregivers independently use Goal Setting worksheets to help their child set a goal and track their progress
  • Children, ages 4 to 14, earn “Shadow Bucks” for making progress and reflecting on their goal each week
  • Weekly email contains all the materials you need (or request copies mailed to you), plus video resources and one-on-one support for parents
  • At the end of the session, kids get to spend Shadow Bucks on fun items from our online “Shadow Store” filled with books, art supplies, LEGOs and more!

It’s a great way to provide structure, and support literacy, and practice goal setting skills when school is not in session
