This is one in a series of easy-to-read booklets prepared by the Calgary-based Vecova Centre for Disability Services and Research (Vecova), formerly known as the Vocational and Rehabilitation Research Institute (VRRI).

The authors discuss the nature of sexuality, sexual orientation, sexually transmitted infections, contraception, and safer sex. They also include suggestions on what to do if a disability makes it difficult to have sex.

The booklet is written in plain language. The authors explain how to pronounce unfamiliar words; provide definitions for challenging terms; and break down compound words into smaller parts.
