A Sexual Attitude Reassessment (SAR) is a unique professional development experience that is recommended for any and every kind of service provider, whether you work in education, healthcare, mental health, social services, or in the sexuality field. SARs help attendees evaluate and examine their beliefs and value systems around sexuality, body autonomy, relationship dynamics, and more, and help facilitate an even more expansive view on the unique and diverse ways humans live and express themselves. When done with compassion and intention, a SAR is an enlightening training and workshop for individuals who support clients in various ways in their work.
This is a special SAR designed with the EDSE community in mind and is co-facilitated by Dr. Bianca Laureano of ANTE UP! and EDSE founder and lead educator Anne Hodder-Shipp. We keep each cohort under 20 people in order to maintain an intimate, accessible, and effective learning environment that allows for interactive group learning. This SAR covers issues, topics, and conversations designed to challenge, support, and enhance your understanding and perspective of subject matter related to identity; relationship; expression; social, disability, and reproductive justice; sexual orientation; bodily autonomy; and more. Completion of the EDSE Sex Educator Certification is not a requirement to attend. Everyone is welcome and encouraged to join us!
EDSE's SARs are one of the only virtual SARs using a trauma-aware approach and created with a justice-centered lens, so attendees can build a stronger understanding of how sexuality intersects with racial, reproductive, disability, and media justice. This intensive three-day training is unlike most SARs available today thanks to its small class size, expansive multimedia teaching tools, engaging and enlightening group discussion, and intentional content curation that extends beyond pornography to facilitate and develop cultural perspective, emotional awareness, recognizing personal biases and knowledge gaps, and a deeper understanding of how power and oppression shows up in our personal and professional lives — especially those working in the sexuality field.
This is a compassionate, open-minded, and dynamic learning and an unlearning space! We'll be challenged, enlightened, and supported throughout the weekend while also building connection and community through group work.
This program meets the requirements for the American Association of Sexuality Educators, Counselor, and Therapists (AASECT) and is approved for 14-16 CEs that can be used toward obtaining or maintaining AASECT certification.
