Personal-Eyes Sex Ed Program for Autism & special needs

“Sex Education contributes to making people happy by teaching them that it is OK to love oneself.”

“The PSE program is an educational guide for Autism and Special Needs. It is an interactive educational course in understanding sexuality and relationships. It explains how to talk about the subject in a natural and realistic way, giving a logical structure to very complex and abstract concepts. It gives the opportunity to be flexible to the person’s needs, adjusting the materials to whatever they want to learn about.

It is a comprehensive guide to help individuals understand their sexuality. There are four main topics; Personal Space, Anatomy, Sexual Attraction and Relationships & Emotions, all linked by three important concepts throughout: Privacy, Trust and Consent.

During the course, the individual will learn about, amongst many other subjects, the physical and mental changes they will experience as they grow and finishes with activities to encourage self esteem.

There are four main topics within the PSE Program, that are: Personal Space, Anatomy, Sexual Attraction and Relationships & Emotions. With a clear structure going from the most simple concepts to the most difficult ones, the guide explains how to talk about this subject in a natural and realistic way, giving logic to what can be complex and abstract concepts.

PRIVACY / TRUST / CONSENT are the main concepts that work as a link for the entire process of learning, to help make wiser decisions in relation to sexuality and to ensure the individual and others remain safe.
The PSE Program uses very creative materials such as Personal-Eyes Stories, comics and games to support the individual’s learning process and ensure they are at the centre of all the activities.
The need and right to understand ones own sexuality exists for everybody but sadly Autistic people and many others with Special Needs often have their rights shut down by society.

Complete with thorough guidance throughout for the educator to provide a clear and consistent learning method about sexuality and relationships to people with Autism or SN, in order to help make sense of certain social interactions, what happens to our bodies as we grow and much more....!”

“Top reasons why the PSE program is your best option:

• The PSE program is very easy to use, with clear explanations, structure and guidance for both the instructor and the person to follow.
• The PSE’s pre-assessment can identify the specific sexually related matters in which the person presents a stronger need of understanding so the process of learning can be focused on those.
• The PSE program offers a brief assessment after each activity so that the initial one can be reviewed and adjusted to the person’s progression.
• The PSE program offers a simple, fun and interactive working process by using different creative materials (comics, games, stories…) that will make the subject appear as something natural and enjoyable to discuss and learn about.
• The methodology used by the PSE program is flexible and can be adjusted to the person’s interests to maintain their engagement and motivation at all times.
• The PSE program allows the person to express themselves with a very clear scoring criteria open to understanding the person’s point of view and previous experience.
• The PSE program uses three main concepts as a link between activities and topics to learn about, which are PRIVACY / TRUST / CONSENT to ensure the individual and others remain safe.
• Unlike other educational materials in the field, the PSE program has been created for Autistic people and SN. Colours and visual aids are adjusted to sensory issues and distractions; the characters present similar appearance through all the activities, and the four main topics are linked by a simple structure and a visual activity to transform them into a jigsaw puzzle so it is a clear visual aid to show the connection between the concepts.”
