Sunny Hill Health Centre for Children:
Sexual Health Resource Network
The Sexual Health Resource Network was established to provide
service province-wide for children and young people with disabilities.
The Sexual Health Resource Network recognizes that young people
with disabilities are particularly vulnerable to sexual abuse.
As well as recognizing that present systems often fail to
support the needs of children and youth with disabilities.
The goals of the Network are:
- To increase the understanding of healthy sexual development
among young children and young people with disabilities
- To ensure those who have experienced sexual abuse will
have access to information about services
The Sexual Health Resource Network provides a Resource and
Information Library as well as Training and Education.
Services can be accessed Monday to Friday between 9 a.m. and
4:30 p.m.
