Program 1 in the Living With Others Library is "Mind Your Manners." This six-part video program teaches students why manners are important, when they should be used, and the different types that should be employed with parents, friends, neighbors and strangers. Attention is also paid to the different manners mandated by different settings: playground, public transportation, at school, at the dinner table, in the bathroom, etc.

Program 2 is "Being With People," an eight-part video series that teaches students more than 100 essential social skills. Vignettes show the right way to keep agreements, how to demonstrate active listening, how to ask for a date, how to accept a refusal, how to apologize, appropriate salutations, proper social distance and more.

Program 3 is "Home of Your Own," which teaches valuable lessons about resolving classic domestic disputes that occur when living spaces are shared. "Home of Your Own" was developed by the Ohio State University Nisonger Center and has been proven effective for teaching individuals with developmental disabilities.
