Community Educator (CE)
Communities for Change Project

Communities for Change is a peer-led awareness project working with communities from refugee backgrounds in the prevention of family, domestic and sexual abuse. The project employs volunteers as Community Educators. They will receive training free of charge to deliver community workshops to address Family and Domestic Violence.

ARA recognises that Community Educators as well-respected and active members of communities, are best placed to address issues of Family and Domestic Abuse within their own communities. Cultural understanding, community connections and language, coupled with further training and support, equip Community Educators to carry out this important role.

CE’s will participate in agreed number of training sessions then go on to develop and deliver workshops with their communities. They will provide information about their work related to family and domestic abuse within their communities and lead discussions to encourage community awareness and referral pathways. The community educators work will be recognised through an honorarium at the completion of the training and delivery of agreed number of workshops.
