Learning Outcomes:

Volunteers wanting to facilitate or co-facilitate group sessions are invited to join this bitesize. Participants will discuss the forming of a group and the ways in which we can help our group members feel welcomed and validated. Participants will be asked to consider how to manage tricky situations and understand how to ensure all group members can contribute in a safe space.

Please only sign up for this session if you are an IDAS volunteer.
