Overview

The Sexual Attitude Reassessment (SAR) Workshop is designed to promote participants' awareness of their attitudes, values, feelings, and beliefs about the wide range of human sexual experience and to assist them in gaining insight into how these attitudes, values, feelings, and beliefs affect them professionally and personally. The SAR uses a combination of large-group, brief didactic, presentations, individual and small-group activities. The large group presentations frequently utilize sexually explicit media to elicit reactions in participants, followed by small group discussions to promote exploration of these reactions.
The SAR will be held at a retreat setting. Participants are expected to stay on site Tuesday night, March 9th.

Topics
