Oak Hill’s Center for Relationship & Sexuality Education (CRSE) offers a curriculum for teens and a seven-workbook series for adults that that addresses the root causes of widespread sexual abuse and other related issues experienced by the IDD community.

Workbooks
A Seven-Workbook Series for Individuals with Intellectual or Developmental Disabilities (I/DD)
The information in these workbooks is presented with sensitivity and reinforces the important concepts of healthy relationships: boundaries, consent, trust, respect, and responsibility. All workbooks promote critical thinking and safe decision making.
PLEASE NOTE: These workbooks are intended as prevention education, not crisis management. If someone is struggling with their own sexuality, has been the victim of abuse, or has demonstrated problematic sexual behavior, they need counseling or other clinical support services, which are beyond the scope of these workbooks.
These workbooks were designed for adults (ages 18 and older) and should be used for educational purposes only.
*Some of these workbooks include educational illustrations of male and female bodies without clothes on and have sexually explicit content.*
All of these workbooks can be read on their own, but for a full understanding, we recommend reading them in order, starting with the Health Series.
