Consent is a hot topic issue - and it should be. But if you were raised in a time where consent was not highlighted or miscommunicated, how do you begin to shift your thoughts on consent from potentially harmful to hopeful? This isn’t your first rodeo - and we know that. So we're here to guide you because we know you're trying - so let us help you understand why it's so important.

ABOUT THE EVENT

In this 3 hour workshop, Sex Educators Rae Szereszewski & Marisa Swinton dive into consent. Focusing beyond what you learned in school because it’s most of the time, it’s not relatable or realistic. We’ll talk nuances, sexual assault, and different consent models. We’ll also talk about how to make consent sexy and not robotic or awkward.
