The Family Planning Association has launched a guide to help
care staff and carers deal with the sexuality of people with
learning difficulties.
The guide promotes good practice in respecting the sexuality of
people with learning difficulties including their sexual health
needs.
The guide is named after an FPA-founded group in London called
TARGET.
The local TARGET group has trained 25 care staff as sex
educators, increased the number of agencies providing support for
people with learning difficulties and developed a mentoring project
for parents and carers.
