Quarterly Virtual Workshops- February, May, August, November

Join us for a fun and dynamic, virtual experience presented by Disability Pride Pennsylvania called "All About Disabled Sex". Sexuality is a natural part of life and people with disabilities have every right to experience it with pleasure and safely. Historically people with disabilities haven’t had the same opportunities for sexuality education and sexuality experiences as their peers without disabilities. Sexuality and relationship education provided now often ignores sexuality and disability all together or assumes people with disabilities aren’t interested in sexuality, doing a huge disservice to the disability community. Disability Pride Pennsylvania fills this need with sex-positive programming for adults with disabilities. Sex positive means facilitating a space where people can learn about sexuality free of shame or judgment. 

“All About Disabled Sex” series will include:

  • Workshop topics include:

    • Pleasure and intimacy

    • Gender diversity

    • Building and keeping healthy relationships

    • Sexual health and wellness

    • Accessing sexuality with technology

    • Navigating sexuality and aging

    • Sexuality and mental health

    • Safety and trust

    • Sexuality and communication 

  • Community movie nights

  • Panel discussions with Queer disability advocates from multiple intersectional and marginalized communities

Many workshops will be run by guest facilitators while others will be facilitated by Izzy Kaufman, M.Ed. Izzy has a Masters of Education in human sexuality studies from Widener University. She has worked with Disability Pride Pennsylvania since 2017 providing comprehensive and pleasure focused sexuality education with a sense of humor. Izzy creates a safe and disability inclusive space for those to be their authentic selves while exploring sensitive topics.
