Talking about sexuality with your loved ones with disabilities can be difficult. As parents and family members, we often worry whether they can be safe from harm in relationships. This workshop from Elevatus Training, LLC will help you become more comfortable and prepared for these conversations. Topics include:

  • What is Sexual Health?
  • Barriers to Communicating
  • Human Sexual Development
  • Tips for Talking


This training is free, provided virtually, and features small and large group discussions. Registration is required.


Sessions are capped at 40 participants. Automatic closed captioning and image descriptions will be provided. Contact Temple University via email to request additional access needs or questions.


This workshop is hosted and facilitated by the Healthy Sexuality Project at the Institute on Disabilities. This workshop is written and designed by Elevatus Training, LLC. The Healthy Sexuality Project is a program of the Institute on Disabilities at Temple University.
