Workshops that prepare participants to lead support groups and guide others through recovery and growth.
The training for facilitators is designed for people who want to support the Ukrainian community in Sweden and contribute to our collective well-being. Our goal is to equip volunteers with practical tools and confidence to lead small group meetings where adults and teens can share experiences, and learn how to support mental health by little steps every day.
Facilitators guide small peer-support groups. These groups offer a safe space, where participants can talk, listen, and reflect together. The role of the facilitator is not to provide therapy but to create a warm, respectful environment, in which every voice can be heard. Facilitators introduce simple well-being practices, help the group stay focused, and encourage open, compassionate conversations.
The training combines theory, practice, and personal reflection. The program is open to anyone who feel motivated to help others. You do not need previous experience. Curiosity, empathy, and willingness to learn are enough. Participation does not create any obligations, so after training you can decide if you still want to joim our team.
You will learn practical mental-health support tools, develop skills in facilitation, active listening, and working with group dynamics. Many volunteers discover new friendships, become part of a community of like-minded people, and grow both personally and professionally. Upon completing the training, you receive a certificate and can confidently add this experience to your CV.
