ALEXANDRIA — The Woodhull Freedom Foundation has announced the workshop and seminar schedule for its seventh annual Sexual Freedom Summit, to be held Aug. 4-7 at the Hilton Alexandria Mark Center in Alexandria, Va. near Washington, D.C.

"There is simply no better place to be if you're concerned with the human right to sexual freedom," said Ricci Levy, president and CEO of the Woodhull Freedom Foundation. "This year's Sexual Freedom Summit is our first to feature tracks on men's sexual pleasure and health, race and racism, disability, sex work and social media in addition to our always wide-ranging selection of workshops. There is really no other conference that combines this caliber of information on sexuality with practical tips for advancing the movement and taking care of ourselves in the process."

The Sexual Freedom Summit's four-day schedule of workshops, seminars, roundtable discussions and sessions will cover a gamut of topics, including geriatric sexuality, abuse, sex education, religion, gender identities, mental health, condom use, policy trends, intellectual and developmental disabilities, consent, and sex work.

A spokesperson for the event said, "From gender expression to reproductive justice, LGBT rights to polyamory, sex work to spirituality, and much more, the Summit welcomes attendees to bring ideas and concerns to the table — all within a human rights framework."
