LOOK INSIDE

Keep your students safe and informed. It is essential that all people, including those on the spectrum, understand sexuality. 

This comprehensive and well-researched curriculum, Intimate Relationships and Sexual Health fill a long-felt need in the autism community; a frank, up-to-date resource on sexuality tailored to the unique characteristics of high-functioning adolescents and adults on the spectrum.

Based on years of experience teaching sexual health and extensive familiarity with individuals with autism spectrum disorders, the authors present "all you ever wanted to know but were afraid to ask/teach", taking into the consideration the autistic learning style.

The Intimate Relationships and Sexual Health A Curriculum for Teaching Adolescents/Adults with High-Functioning Autism Spectrum Disorders and Other Social Challenges curriculum comes complete with lessons, activities, handouts, resources, and more. Handouts, which can be downloaded from the AAPC website, were created for easy individualization.

Foreword by Gary B. Mesibov, PhD.
