EDSE to Host Sexual Attitude Reassessment (SAR) Event in December

Los Angeles, CA – Educational organization Everyone Deserves Sex Ed (EDSE) has collaborated with ANTE UP! to create a one-of-a-kind Sexual Attitude Reassessment (SAR) event. The virtual event will be held December 11 through 13, 2020 via Zoom.

This intensive three-day training is guided by the goals of liberation with a focus on racial, reproductive, disability and media justice. It aims to give adult industry and sexuality professionals a valuable opportunity to build skills while learning – and unlearning – important concepts that inform the ways they work with customers and clients.

A SAR is a unique professional development experience that focuses on sexuality topics.

Co-presented by EDSE Founder Anne Hodder-Shipp  and ANTE UP! Founder Bianca Laureano, EDSE’s SAR will present key sexuality concepts, as well as also incorporate essential reproductive justice, racial justice, disability justice and social justice frameworks.

“SARs help us evaluate and examine our beliefs and value systems around sexuality, autonomy, relationship dynamics, and more, and helps facilitate an even more expansive view on the unique and diverse ways humans live and express themselves,” Hodder-Shipp said.

“SARs are recommended for every kind of sexuality professional, whether you work in education, retail, customer service, or content production, and they can be a great option for folks who want training but can’t commit to an extensive certification or academic program,” Hodder-Shipp added.

According to Laureano, the SAR built by ANTE UP! and EDSE is unique in that “the content not only presents key sexuality concepts, but also incorporates essential reproductive justice, racial justice, disability justice and social justice frameworks for an especially expansive and fulfilling experience.”

Laureano added, “We encourage everyone to bring their full selves into this learning and an unlearning space! We’ll be challenged, enlightened, and supported throughout the weekend while also building connection and community through group work!”

The EDSE SAR is scheduled from December 11 through 13, from 11 am-3:30 pm PST and will take place entirely online via Zoom. Cost is $450. This program meets the requirements for the American Association of Sexuality Educators, Counselor, and Therapists (AASECT) and is approved for 10 CEs that can be used toward obtaining or maintaining AASECT certification.
