Introduction to Social Stories
By Sherry Pardy, Natasha Lupiani, and Anna Warfield
The concept of Social Stories was created by Carol Gray in 1991 to use with children and adults with autism in order to better assist them with a variety of social situations.

- Great, right this way, please.
- Hello. Jason Thompson has a 4:00 COVID vaccine appointment.
- My birthday is July 10, 2011.
- My left arm, please.
- Which arm do you prefer? I suggest your non-dominant arm.
- My parent or guardian will make an appointment for me at a pharmacy, urgent care clinic, or other site near me.
- I feel nervous, mom.
- Now I am going to clean the area.
- When we arrive, my parent or guardian will check me in. I may have to wait a few minutes for my turn.
- Close your eyes if you want, honey.
- Okay, here we go. A little pinch.
- When it is my turn, I will sit in a chair. The person giving me the vaccine will double check my name and birthday.
- The person giving me the shot will ask me if I prefer the shot in my right or left arm. I will answer.
- How are you feeling?
- A little tired and sore, but otherwise fine!
- The person giving me the shot will wipe the area of my skin clean.
- It's okay to be nervous, honey. I am right here.
- I will feel a pinch in my arm when the needle goes in.
- They will cover it with a cotton ball and tape or a band-aid. I will have to wait for a few minutes before they give me my vaccination card.
- My arm may be sore for the day and I may feel under the weather for a day or two. This is very normal.
