Description: Consent in our culture is evolving, expanding, and something people need to learn about. Teaching about it requires an in-depth understanding of the complexities and nuance surrounding consent in today's world.

About the Facilitators: The Consent Academy is a group of dedicated educators and activists who provide quality consent training and consultations. We have come together to promote Consent Culture through education, speaking out, and supporting organizations that want to do better. We talk about consent and consensual activity a lot. Its the cornerstone of what we teach and who we are. And while that is easy to say, we know that living a dedication to consent takes work, awareness, and a willingness to engage.
The Consent Academy has a book forthcoming in Autumn 2019 entitled "The Consent Primer"; written by Sar Surmick, Rachel Drake, Lara-Ashley Monroe, Kelley O'Hanlon, and Leah Hirsch.
This retreat will be taught be Sar Surmick, MA, LMFT, Director of the Consent Academy.
