Participants will leave with actionable ideas and a starting point for creating inclusive learning opportunities.

By the end of this session, participants will be able to:

• Recognize common challenges individuals with IDD face in accessing sexual health information.
• Identify practical strategies for adapting sexual health education to meet varied language and cognitive needs.
• Explore reliable resources that support inclusive sexual health education.
