Please join NYSCASA for an upcoming webinar, Doin' It for the Culture, to be held via Zoom on Thursday, June 2, from 11:00 AM to 12:30 PM ET.

This is not your mama’s sexual education session. Instead, this gives historical context on how sexual education has become such a taboo topic and how we can discuss healthy, culturally relevant sexual education on sex, pleasure, and body autonomy. This session does not provide any form of medical sexual advice/information but will be an open discussion on how community members can move past the discomfort of taboo topics.

About the Speaker: Nestic Morris is currently the Outreach Coordinator at the Wisconsin Coalition Against Sexual Assault (WCASA). She received her undergraduate degree in Sociology and Communication from UW-Whitewater and working on her Master's at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee. For the past 20 years, Nestic has worked in her community to address social change, racism, and oppression. She also has experience working in youth development and with women in the criminal justice system. As the founder of Beautiful Struggle LLC Consulting, Nestic is a skilled public speaker, group facilitator, and trainer. She believes that as a community, "we have to have uncomfortable conversations and put tangible actions behind those words; otherwise, we are just community talkers and not doers."

Logistics/Accessibility: This webinar will be held virtually via Zoom Meetings. Video participation is not required. The webinar will be conducted in spoken English with English captions. Language interpretation can be made available upon request. Please indicate in the registration form at least three business days prior to the event if language interpretation is needed.
