Sexuality and Relationship Education

Rubix Support’s Sexuality and Relationship Educators (SRE) empowers people to develop the knowledge, skills and confidence to build, safe respectful, and meaningful relationships.

We believe that everyone has the right to understand their bodies, feelings and boundaries – and to express themselves in way that supports dignity, safety and wellbeing.

All of our SRE Educators come from Developmental Education and Teaching backgrounds and are registered as Positive Behaviour Support (PBS) Practitioners and bring both educational expertise and clinical experience. This allows our Educators work to tailor learning to each person’s age, goals, and preferences and ensure that it is delivered in a way that is accessible, inclusive and rights-based way that is age-appropriate and fun.

While we previously used the Assessment of Sexual Knowledge (ASK) tool to better understand and assess the sexual knowledge and attitudes of people with an intellectual disability, we recognised that this tool did not suit everyone. We now use the Understanding Sexuality Assessment to better meet the needs of people. Our team is actively contributing the review and updates to the ASK tool.
