As children with special needs grow up, they and their families need to address questions of sex and sexuality. However, adults may feel uncertain about how to guide a young person.

Now, parents can get support and information from Stephanie Mitelman, a certified sexuality educator in Montreal who has developed a specialization in special needs and offers telephone or in-home sessions for parents. On December 2, 2011, she will be giving a training session for professionals working with young people and adults called “The ABCs of Sexuality and Autism.”
