Zusammenfassung:Date Presented 04/8/21 This study describes the results of usability testing of activities designed to address the gaps and barriers to sexual health education (SHE) for clients with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD). Recommendations from stakeholders were incorporated, and the feasibility of a 5-week SHE program was evaluated. OTs can use the results of this study to address significant sexual and reproductive health disparities currently faced by individuals with IDD.
