The Disabled Peoples Association of Singapore (DPA) organised its first sexuality workshop with speaker Martha Tara Lee, a clinical sexologist from Eros Coaching, in 2019 as part of their Di-Sex programme. The COVID-19 pandemic has disrupted their plans for subsequent sessions, but they plan to resume the programme in 2021.
