THANK YOU SO MUCH to everyone that purchased tickets to the Sexuality & Disability conference! The event is officially sold out.

We are happy to announce another presentation being featured at the conference, Tell It Like It Is: Sexual Health and Wellness Education, presented by Kirby Brigden and Kristyn White. Tell It Like It Is assists diverse learners and the people that support them in making life choices that promote optimal wellness in all dimensions of life. The curriculum consists of 9 modules covering a range of topics and concepts pertaining to relationships, dating, gender identity, sexual identity, personal hygiene, safer sex practices, and more. We are excited to discuss this important resource, and debut a new sexual health video series we have been working hard on!

For questions about the event, please contact kristyn@inclusionregina.ca. We can't wait to see everyone on October 7th!

"Being shown years of opportunity, I am now motivated to actively show others their worth and help them access similar opportunities. I now understand where my heart truly is; seeing people lead healthy, fulfilling and purposeful lives."

"Gentle Teaching has played a major role in my life through the relationships I have formed with individuals at COR, supports, co-workers and the students I teach. As an educator who teaches students with disabilities, I have learned to understand the “why”."
