FREE Workshop: Flipping the Story on Disability and Violence with Patsie Frawley and Nancy Fitzsimons
Ever wondered how to “flip the script” on disability and violence? 🤔 Join Patsie Frawley and Nancy Fitzsimons for a FREE workshop where they’ll teach you how to turn tragedy into triumph (or at least a mildly interesting PowerPoint).
In honor of Sexual Assault Awareness Month, these two experts will discuss why people with intellectual disabilities face more violence than the general public (spoiler: it’s not because they’re secretly superheroes). Learn how to prevent violence, promote rights, and maybe even make a difference—if you’re not too busy scrolling through memes.
📅 **Workshop Date:** Thursday, April 2, 2026, 6:00–7:30 PM Eastern (because who doesn’t love a Thursday night Zoom call?)
🎓 **Learning Objectives:**
– Define “flipping the story” (it’s not just for pancakes).
– Explore themes from violence prevention programs (like “don’t be a jerk”).
– Examine how sexuality educators can use these themes (spoiler: they’ll probably still use memes).
💻 **Access Instructions:** Register, get a confirmation email (check spam if it’s shy), and join via Zoom. Need accommodations? Email [email protected]—but don’t wait until the last minute unless you enjoy disappointment.
👩🏫 **Presenters:** Patsie Frawley (PhD, 40 years of experience) and Nancy Fitzsimons (PhD, MSW, LISW, 30 years of advocacy). Together, they’re like the dynamic duo of disability rights—minus the capes.
Register now and let’s flip the story… or at least pretend to while sipping coffee. ☕
