Support Group Facilitator - Halifax
Parkinson Canada is urgently recruiting Support Group Facilitators for the Halifax/Dartmouth area. The Support Group Facilitator plays a critical role in the delivery of support services at community level. Once a month, they create a confidential and welcoming space, where people living with Parkinson’s and/or their care partners can share their experiences and develop supportive relationships in a group setting. The group meets on the third Wednesday of each month from 10:00am-12:00pm AT. As a Support Group Facilitator, you bring a keen desire to make a difference in the lives of people affected by Parkinson’s. Your empathetic approach, enthusiasm for learning, and ability to facilitate discussion about issues related to Parkinson’s are key factors in ensuring that monthly support groups are safe spaces. If you are interested in this opportunity, please email volunteer@parkinson.ca, or sign up at https://parkinsoncanada.volunteerhub.com/vv2/
