Attendees will explore inclusive strategies for teaching consent, bodily autonomy, boundaries, and communication that affirm diverse genders, sexual orientations, family structures, and abilities. The session also builds confidence in navigating questions, discomfort, and resistance from both children and adults, using trauma-informed, evidence-based, and affirming approaches to support healthy learning environments.
