#itsnotok2020 this week we are thinking about sexual abuse and sexual violence. It’s important to be aware that people with a learning disability are 4 times more likely to experience sexual abuse than other citizens. Change needs to come!!

Let's change the language around #STIs. Having an STI does NOT make you unclean.
Infections happen, the important thing is that we normalise dialogue and remove stigma so that young people feel comfortable getting tested and treated.

Raising sex positive kids means:
1. Teaching them about consent as early as possible.
2. Telling them that masturbation is normal and healthy.
3. Teaching them they do not owe their body to anyone, ever.
4. Teaching them the correct anatomical words for their body parts.

According to StatsCan, one in five (22%) Canadians aged 15 years and over have one or more disabilities – that’s 6.2 million people! About 4% of this group have an intellectual or developmental disability. This is a significant voting block in Canada. Your vote counts! #WhyIVote
