Wanted: resources on how to teach social skills to DD with ASD

Both a health professional and school have raised the possibility that DD (16) may be on the autistic spectrum - in part due to her problems forming friendships and the way in which she comes across to her peers. Can anyone suggest any resources, websites that give advice on how to teach the social skills.
The more I read about the general subject I realise I have the same tendencies which is why I think I haven't noticed these traits in DD. Thank you in advance.

Look up ASD social stories. They are use visual and restricted verbal communication. Once you have something suitable you go through it regularly (daily)
. They really help the person understand in a way that's suitable to their learning capabilities.
