Human sexuality is a complex landscape of physiology and psychology, gender identification and preference, nature and self-determination. In this full-day conference, participants will have an opportunity to explore the spectrum of human sexual behaviors and experience, from childhood through old age, in a culturally sensitive and scientifically balanced manner. Participants will have an opportunity to self-select from a wide array of topics that address clinical and medical issues, mental health topics, and cultural competence with respect to age, health status, and patient/client encounters in practice.
