Liens sur la sexualité et les handicaps

Nous passons un bon moment à naviguer sur internet pour trouver des ressources par rapport à la sexualité et les handicaps.

Nous avons compilé une liste de nos liens favoris, la première section offrant des ressources sur la sexualité et les handicaps, la seconde portant sur des ressources par rapports aux handicaps en général (dont des liens vers des sites personnels que nous trouvons extra).

Malheureusement, les sites vont et viennent. Certains disparaissent sans même un baiser d'adieu. Nous tentons de maintenir cette section à jour, mais n'hésitez pas à nous dire si vous remarquez un lien brisé. La plupart de ces liens sont en anglais.

Plusieurs ressources ne sont pas dans la liste, mais nous sommes toujours heureux d'en ajouter et de creuser pour trouver plus. Si vous cherchez plus d'information, il nous fera plaisir de vous aider.

Queers On Wheels

Sexuality and Disability Webliography
BC Coalition of People with Disabilities provides this excellent and very recent (2002) collection of online, print & video resources related to sexuality and disability. Covers a wide range of disabilities & chronic illnesses, as well as glbt issues.

Speak Up
The Speak Up project gives people who use augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) the words and pictures they need in order to communicate about and express their sexuality. Without access to these words, people who use AAC cannot learn about, disclose or report issues relating to victimization. They have developed, and are continuing to develop both the words and pictures and an excellent resource kit for people who use AAC.

An excellent book about sexuality and multiple sclerosis. You can order a hardcopy of the book through the MS Society of Canada (see above for contact information) or download the entire book free of charge from this link. It's written by Canadian sex educator, zooologist, and sexual health activist extrodinaire, Michael Barrett.

Even better, each title comes with a brief description and all the ordering information needed. The only drawback is that the list is somewhat dated
