The Facts of Life and More

Sexuality and Intimacy for People with Intellectual Disabilities


Making decisions about sexuality issues is an important part of being an adult. This book gives teachers, carers, and direct support professionals the information they need to educate people with disabilities about sexuality, and help them make the best possible choices throughout their lives. The Facts of Life and More includes interviews that show how couples with disabilities handle the joys and challenges of their relationships. It assists people in managing risks associated with sexual activity and uses behaviour interventions to encourage appropriate sexual expression.
