Moving from a Friend to a Partner in the Age of Technology
Part four of our Sexuality Series explores how to navigate the internet and social media in a helpful, safe, and positive way.
About this Workshop
People with developmental disabilities want to form positive, healthy relationships, but may not know how to meet others and develop these relationships. When we add the latest technology and social media, we may feel nervous or unsure about how to stay safe ourselves and how to support people with disabilities.
Part four of our Sexuality Series explores how to navigate the internet and social media in a helpful, safe, and positive way.

About the Sexuality series
Discussing sexuality with young adults is vital, yet often challenging, and many of us lack the experience or skills to engage in healthy conversations. These discussions play a key role in promoting personal well-being, respect, and dignity.
The Sexuality Series is a virtual, four-part series of free workshops put on by the Perkins Transition Center, designed for families and professionals to explore strategies for meaningful conversations and discover tools to make the topic of Sexuality easier to approach with young adults with disabilities.
Speaker: Katherine McLaughlin, M.Ed., Founder and Director of Training, Elevatus Training
