Woodhull Sexual Freedom

ALEXANDRIA, VA (April 14, 2016) – The Woodhull Freedom Foundation announces its workshop and seminar schedule for its seventh annual Sexual Freedom Summit. Held August 4 – 7 in Alexandria, Virginia, the Summit is the one conference focused on sexual freedom as a fundamental human right in the US.

 

“There is simply no better place to be if you’re concerned with the human right to sexual freedom,” says Ricci Levy, President and CEO of Woodhull Freedom Foundation. “This year’s Sexual Freedom Summit is our first to feature tracks on men’s sexual pleasure and health, race and racism, disability, sex work, and social media, in addition to our always wide-ranging selection of workshops. There is really no other conference that combines this caliber of information on sexuality, with practical tips for advancing the movement and taking care of ourselves in the process.”

 

From gender expression to reproductive justice, LGBT rights to polyamory, sex work to spirituality, and much more, the Summit welcomes attendees to bring ideas and concerns to the table, all within a human rights framework. The four-day schedule of institutes and workshops, roundtable discussions and sessions cover a gamut of topics, ranging from geriatric sexuality, abuse, sex education, religion, gender identities, mental health, condom use, policy trends, intellectual and developmental disabilities, consent, sex work, and more.
