Hello Brook, 

You can skew things or shear as it's known in Illustrator using the toolbar icon which is located in the Scale Tool flyout. Click and hold on that tool until you get the flyout. 

You can also access the Shear command from the menu bar: OBJECT > TRANSFORM > SHEAR... 

To skew/shear only part of an object, select the desired anchor points with the Direct Selection Tool then apply the Shear command. 

For perspective, you can use the Free Transform tool which is located under the Scale Tool. It's a bit tricky at first so it's best to consult the Help file as to its usage if you're unfamiliar with it. 

Regards,
