About:

LGBTQ folks with cognitive disabilities (or folks with cognitive disabilities who are questioning or curious about their gender and / or orientation) meet over Zoom, watch some Real Talk videos, and participate in a conversation facilitated by a certified sexual health educator.

Everybody has questions about dating, love, relationships, and sex. Things like:

• How do I meet a boyfriend / girlfriend / partner?
• How do I let my family know that I want to date?
• How can I make sex safer?
• What is consent?

It’s totally normal. But sometimes it can be hard to know where to get good information. At this Zoom event, we'll watch some Real Talk videos, and have a conversation hosted by a Certified Sexual Health Educator. We’ll talk about where to get good information, who can support us with this stuff, and how to figure out confusing situations. People are welcome to talk about things, or to just listen if they don’t want to talk.

- We ask folks to turn on their cameras at the very beginning to say hello, but you can turn them back off for the rest of the event if that makes you more comfortable.
