Sexuality of disabled people has been a taboo topic in social work practice and society. The disability rights movement in the West has made a significant impact on ensuring the sexual rights of the disabled, which social work practice in the Chinese community can no longer neglect. Sex volunteers for the disabled provide an option for disabled people to exercise their sexual rights and promote better life-fulfilment as adults. This article reviews the narratives of service users and the sex volunteers in Taiwan in the hope of understanding the lived experiences, challenges, and impacts of sex volunteering for disabled people. Understanding the experiences of disabled people and sex volunteers provides insights and the ground to explore future social work practice.
