Respect Yourself for Women

Press here for a printable flyer about this project

   FNRC believes that people with disabilities need basic information about their bodies and their sexuality. Ignorance does not protect consumers; it leaves them vulnerable to exploitation and abuse.
 
  The Respect training series will help consumers develop skills to live a healthy adult lifestyle, maintain and improve sexual health, prevent pregnancy and disease, and recognize abuse and exploitation.

   Each workshop includes plenty of interactive exercises and discussion and practical examples. The curriculum includes the following topics: Self-Esteem, Human Anatomy/Sexual Life Cycle, Hygiene/Self and Medical Care, Sexual Expression, Pregnancy/Parenting and Abuse Prevention.

   The Respect series is free to women with developmental disabilities, over the age of 18, living in the FNRC catchment area. Participants must agree to attend all 9 sessions to register in this program.
