Join SchoolTalk, Edlavitch DCJCC, and DCASE for a dynamic discussion on the topic of sex education and healthy relationships for youth with disabilities. This program is open to any stakeholder, community member, self-advocate, family member, educator, and anyone ready to be "change agents."

Through a World Café-designed day, with dynamic speakers and table experts from our DC disability community, we will discuss, explore, and launch broad solutions to help these individuals develop productive, independent, and healthy lives and relationships.

Our goal is to dive into these topic areas and develop programs for our community:

Sexual Health/Physical Health & Sex Education
Online Safety
Healthy Body Image (Self Awareness and Self Esteem)
Social-Relationships-Dating and safe places for independence
Family Engagement (parents and siblings)
Workplace safety (sexual harassment)

*Check-in begins at 8:45.
