The talk: increasing confidence and effectiveness when addressing sexual health and behaviors when working with young adults with intellectual disabilities

Turnbull, Taylor 24 August 2023 (has links)
Individuals with intellectual disabilities often lack access to appropriate sexual education, leading to negative impacts on their well-being and safety. Occupational therapists can play a vital role in addressing sexual education, health, behaviors, and community safety for these individuals. The Talk aims to empower school-based occupational therapists to become advocates and educators in the field of sexual health and behaviors, improving overall well-being and safety. This 6-hour presentation celebrates neurodiversity and provides up-to-date information and case studies to enhance understanding and promote strategies for working with young adults with intellectual disabilities. The program seeks to reduce the risk of sexual victimization and promote education and strategies for increased bodily autonomy and a better future. Plans for program implementation, funding, and evaluation of The Talk are included as well as dissemination of program findings to advance the occupational therapy evidence base.
