Working to Enhance Women’s Sexual Health and Well-Being Through Research and Education
The Patty Brisben Foundation supports research to identify information and develop tools that enable women to have appropriate discussions regarding sexual health among themselves, with their family members, relational partners and healthcare providers. The Patty Brisben Foundation pledges to support:
Innovative research that seeks to understand the nature of women’s sexuality and sexual health in today’s society
Much-needed research that seeks to understand how people develop and sustain relationships, seek and obtain information about their bodies and how women in particular manage the complex sexuality issues that arise when faced with a chronic illness
Research and educational programs that seek to improve the extent to which healthcare providers respond to their patients’ sexuality issues
