TETONS Teens: Sexual Wellness and Abuse Prevention
TETONS ”Sexual Wellness and Abuse Prevention” includes a free 4 week virtual class and individualized 1:1 relationship coaching. We help map a road to relationships, self-determination and personal safety for individuals with disabilities. Utah Parent Center, in partnership with Utah Developmental Disabilities Council, have curated this unique material to meet the needs of self-advocates 16-18 years of age. Self-advocates attending must have access to a computer, and a private quiet place to attend class.
The course material and class environment is designed with total accessibility in mind. Our program is a safe, inclusive, and judgment-free space. We welcome learners of all abilities, races, ethnicities, gender identities, sexual orientations, and religious affiliations. Everyone deserves access to comprehensive, medically accurate sexual health information.
This class is Part 2 of the two part TETONS series. We will cover:
-consent
