If your child is getting to the age that you fear difficult questions, this may be the course for you! I don’t know the date, but there is one beginning in August if they meet the minimum of 10. The McGrath Institute for Church Life at the University of Notre Dame has partnered with NCPD to develop a six-week, online, facilitated course for $99 that equips parents, teachers and ministers to address "Sex Ed" with the young people they care about. Called "The Body and Beyond: Human Sexuality for Young People with Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities from a Catholic Perspective," the course involves approximately 2-3 hours per week, including an opportunity for 1 live Zoom conversation (at a time determined by the participants and facilitator). Participation costs $99. Ministers who complete the course will gain free access to the course materials and a facilitator manual that enable them to implement educational programming in their local setting. A minimum of 10 participants are needed for the course to run. Please direct any questions to Dr. Clare Kilbane, ckilbane@nd.edu
