Sexual Abuse Awareness for Self-Advocates
Sexual abuse can happen to anyone. People with disabilities are especially at risk for sexual abuse. This training describes types of abuse, including unwanted touch, physical force and non-physical force. You will learn how to make yourself safer with street smarts and street awareness and how to fight against abuse if it happens to you. If you have been abused, we encourage you to tell someone who can help you deal with the feelings and effects of the abuse.
