Health & Fitness:Sexuality
In this episode, we speak to Kardie from FPV’s Schools and Community team.
Kardie works with young people with cognitive disability to help guide them through puberty and how to have respectful relationships. We talk about what young people with cognitive disability need to know about puberty, when they need to know it and how their experience may be the same or different to their neuro-typical peers. Enjoy!
