Education around sexual behaviours

Dhiverse offers short-term educational programmes for individuals aged 9 to 18 – or above 18 if they have a learning disability or autism – who have engaged, or are at risk of engaging, in concerning or inappropriate sexual behaviours. Sessions can be delivered to groups or one-to-one. Participation is entirely voluntary and requires the participant’s consent.

They also run quarterly ‘Understanding Sexual Behaviours’ webinars for professionals, parents, and carers, which provide practical insights into the reasons behind these behaviours and offer initial guidance on how best to support the individuals involved.
