Although we all may have different levels of comfort and desire to be around people (think introversion/extroversion), ALL humans are inherently social beings. Friendships of all kinds (acquaintances, coworkers, and even romantic partnerships) require important skills- skills that are often not explicitly taught. redpoint Seattle has created curriculum to support young adults.
