"Triska's short book immerses readers in the sexual struggles of those with recognized intellectual disabilities. In providing us with a treasure trove of information, guidance, resources, and hope to deal with their challenges, the author is convincing readers that this population's sexual identity and sexual behavioral needs should notbe ignored. Trust this able educator's experience, and your ability to help these people and their families willsurely expand." Stephen B. Levine, MD, editor of the Handbook of Clinical Sexuality for Mental Health Professionals "This important book challenges agency staff to view sexuality holistically and offers practical ideas for supporting individuals with intellectual disabilities at all organizational levels. Triska updates us on the research related to rarely addressed topics (e.g. parenting, supporting LGBTQ individuals, consent, offenders, and more) and helps us figure out how to translate that into evidenced-based practices.

This is a great resource for professionals supporting a new generation of individuals with intellectual disabilities." Terri Couwenhoven MS, AASECT sex educator and author " Sexuality and Intellectual Disabilities is a comprehensive, clear, and accessible guide to addressing sexuality and intellectual disabilities at the individual, organizational, and policy level. Numerous engaging case examples bring topics to life, challenging the reader to examine their current practice and more proactively address sexuality content. The book thoughtfully unpacks critical concepts of consent and privacy and does a particularly good job addressing LGBTQ inclusivity."
