Able2’s CRUSH program is a relationships workshop for young people with a disability.
The aim of this program is to deliver a high-quality, youth relevant and interactive program to educate and inform young people with a disability about healthy relationships, consent and safe sex.
We support young people to develop useful life skills, a positive and healthy attitude towards sexuality and well-being within a framework that promotes and protects their human rights.
Our program focuses on their safety, supports community participation and inclusion.
The program is facilitated over 8 weeks by experienced and trained disability youth work practitioners.
We believe that if a young person is informed they are better able to make safe decisions for themselves and others.
