Diverse Sexualities Research and Education Institute

Create an impeccable reputation for excellence. Become known as an excellent resource in support of sex research, education, and training pertaining to diverse sexualities. Raise awareness of the need for further sex research, education, and training pertaining to the spectrums of sexual interests, gender expressions, and intimate relationships.

We support conferences, organizations, and individuals who would not otherwise have the resources to promote goals. Currently, we are involved in support of:

1) The Multiplicity of the Erotic conference
2) Creation and publication of the Kink Clinical Practice Guidelines Project. (2019). Clinical Practice Guidelines for Working with People with Kink Interests. See https://www.kinkguidelines.com
3) Creating the American College of Sexual Medicine and Health, a professional organization to train health care providers to care for individuals with diverse sexualities or interests.
