Sex Talks
Sex Talks is a workshop series all about sexual health and relationships. We talk about consent and boundaries, gender and sexuality, masturbation, staying safe online and more. All questions are good questions and you will have time to ask about anything you want.
Sex Talks is a series of one-hour workshops, over six consecutive weeks. It is designed for people 16+ who have a developmental and/or physical disability, and is delivered in partnership with SHORE Centre and ACCKWA. People under the age of 18 will receive a caregiver/guardian consent form to be signed before the series begins. This workshop is also open to all community members 16 years of age or older.
