Let's Talk About It: Sexual Health and Wellness Online Self-Paced Training for Parents and Professionals (PEATC) Training closes June 15, 2023

This is a completed event.

Description:

THIS ONLINE SELF-PACED TRAINING IS FOR VIRGINIA PARENTS, GUARDIANS, AND FAMILY MEMBERS OF YOUTH WITH DISABILITES. IT IS ALSO OPEN FOR EDUCATORS AND PROFESSIONALS.

Individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) are often not included in discussions around sexual health and wellness. In fact, many people don't view individuals with IDD as sexual beings. We are all sexual beings.

It is critical for youth with disabilities to develop self-care skills, cultivate social skills, gain an understanding of appropriate behaviors, increase personal safety, and work toward becoming a more independent adult.

This training will provide information for parents/guardians of students with IDD and the professionals that work with them to offer practical tools and strategies along the journey.

THIS TRAINING IS ONLINE AND SELF-PACED.

YOU CAN ACCESS THE TRAINING INFORMATION ANY TIME BETWEEN MAY 15, 2023 AND June 15, 2023.
