Product Description:

Many individuals with I/DD want healthy relationships, would like to go out on dates, or want to know more about sexual health. How do you support people with I/DD to achieve these goals and work with guardians if they are hesitant about these topics? In this session, we provide easy-to-use resources, discuss approaches to challenging topics such as guardian resistance, and share methods that support understanding around relationships, sexuality, and dating for individuals with I/DD
