Sex and relationships for people with learning disabilities
Ruth Garbutt
Sex and relationships, in relation to young people with learning disabilities, is a contentious topic. This article reports on a project that looked into this topic. It concludes that many young people with learning disabilities lack a good understanding of sex and relationships, and that information and sex education training for them is patchy. It makes recommendations for change, including the need for more support, training and better guidance for practitioners.
