Jane Fleishman, Ph.D., M.Ed., M.S., is an AASECT Certified Sexuality Educator. She is on a mission to promote the sexual well-being of older adults in senior living communities as an educator, writer, researcher, podcaster, and blogger. She co-hosts a podcast, www.ourbetterhalf.net with Dr. Rosara Torrisi. She trains staff on sexuality and aging in assisted living communities, senior centers, gerontology, and hospice conferences. She works at the intersection of age, sex, race, gender identity, sexual orientation, and class. She believes that sexuality is a human right especially for older adults. Given the societal taboos about discussing sexuality especially when it centers on older adults, this breakout session will offer clinicians a unique opportunity to apply current research and resources to their clinical and administrative practice with older adults. The focus of this highly-interactive breakout session is on improving clinicians’ knowledge, skills, and attitudes around sexuality in their work with an aging population.

This event was planned and organized by NASW-MA's Central Regional Council.
