Mithra, a rehabilitation centre for challenged children, conducted human sexuality education for students with disabilities 5 October on its premises.
The resource person was co-ordinator, Department of special education in the Seva Sadan Trust, Chetpet, Meena Kulkarni, who has been in the field of disability for over 19 years.
She conducted several role-playing sessions in this programme to convey good touch and bad touch to the students which was an easy way of passing the message for them. She provided ideas to parents and teachers on how to teach children about human sexuality at home and in school.
In the end there was an interactive section, which cleared many doubts of parents and teachers. The event was organised by trainee, Department of Social Work, D G Vaishnav College, S Sivapriya, under community organisation.
