SUMMARY:SHARC Peer Facilitator Training
DESCRIPTION:Hello from the Team here at Peer Projects! \nWe are thrilled to announce that registrations for our next Peer Facilitator Training are now open. \nThis 1-day training is specifically designed to upskill peer workers to develop and facilitate groups from a lived experience perspective within formalised settings. Specific training in group facilitation can be incredibly beneficial as delivering and developing peer support groups are often an integral part of peer work roles. This training will assist peer workers to be able to maintain the roles and responsibilities of a facilitator whilst also remaining a ‘peer’ in the group. \nEligibility: This training is free for AOD Peer Workers in state-funded services in Victoria. \nAs this training is currently only available for those who are in a Victorian state funded AOD Peer Work role\, we request that you only fill out a questionnaire if this is you.
