What is the Role of a Facilitator for a Fresh Hope for Mental Health Support Group?
A Facilitator does not teach or preach but mainly presents a topic and then fosters conversation around it. Fresh Hope provides materials for over two years of meetings (assuming the group meets on a weekly basis). Facilitators are free to “build” the order in which they approach topics, depending on the specific needs they observe in their group.
Fresh Hope provides ongoing support for Facilitators including personalized coaching on how to get the group started, a monthly facilitator meeting, and a monthly episode of the facilitator’s podcast.
