The development of one’s socio-sexuality identity is an important part of having a rich and fulfilling life. Relationships, exploration, love, intimacy, well-being of self, and comradeship are all a part of the picture. For many people with disabilities, social judgement, taboos, perceptions, and role-casting tend to hinder developmental growth, and the results can include a deep loneliness, feelings of rejection, and missing out on important formative experiences. Join us for an exploration of the guidance SRV theory can provide as we analyze the light that SRV can shine on how to help people towards a robust sense of themselves, their socio-sexual identities, and relationships. Viveka and Betsy will provide some basic “SRV Info” on typical responses to sexual expression by people with disability, and together we’ll talk through ways to work towards better. Expect a lively moderated dialogue which may well raise more questions than it answers!
