Compassionate, Trauma-Informed Sex Education

Title of Event: Compassionate, Trauma-Informed Sex Education
 
Description of Event:
This session will present a more compassionate approach to teaching consent, moving away from gatekeeper or permissive models to a collaborative one. We will bust myths around consent, including the “freeze and fawn” responses and factors that make consent complex. The discussion will also include strategies for effectively communicating these shifts to parents, administrators, and educators.

Dealing With Disclosure

Title of Event: Dealing With Disclosure
 
Description of Event:
As professionals who work with people in clinical, educational, or medical, settings, we are aware that approximately 25% of our clients will have histories of child sexual abuse. We may not know - or even think we need to know - which of them is a survivor. Should we ask? Should we expect our clients, students, or patients to tell us? If they do - how do we deal with that disclosure?
