Peer Facilitators – Sexual, Domestic and Family Violence

30 Aug 2024 7:59 AM | coby baker (Administrator)

Ever wanted to make a positive difference as an LGBTQ+ person in your communities? Now is your chance!

We want to build a diverse pool of facilitators to deliver ACON workshops as LGBTQ+ peers. We are looking for people with some knowledge about sexual, domestic and family violence, and who are comfortable discussing these topics. We particularly encourage people with connections to the following communities and populations to apply:

    • Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people
    • trans people of all genders,
    • fetish and kink communities
    • sporting communities
    • party communities (eg people who are actively involved in planning club or party events),
    • people from migrant, refugee and culturally, linguistically diverse communities
    • GBQ+ men (cis and trans),
    • and people from regional locations.

We are on the lookout for some people to join the Sexual, Domestic and Family Violence team in the Health Equity and Harm Reduction Division to play a vital role in implementing our workshops.

These roles will support the implementation of ACON’s LGBTQ+ Sexual, Domestic and Family Violence (SDFV) Program for sexuality and gender diverse communities aimed at preventing and reducing the impact of SDFV experienced by LGBTQ+ people in NSW.

These are casual roles, where you will be offered shifts on an ad hoc basis (aka regular hours will not be offered). The workshop shifts offered will primarily be after business hours and weekends.

What workshops you say?

  • ACON’s healthy relationship workshops are a 4-week (one night a week), NSW based program for any LGBTQ+ person who wants to learn about healthy relationships. The workshops provide a safe and respectful environment for LGBTQ+ community members of all genders to share their experiences, understand factors that contribute to healthy relationships and learn new skills to create healthier relationships with their loved ones. The weeks content is all linked to four main themes: 1. Respect and Values, 2. Communication and Boundary Setting, 3. Sex and Consent, and 4. Conflict Resolution.
  • ACON’s strengthening LGBTQ+ community responses to disclosures of sexual violence workshops are a full day and NSW based. The workshops are for any LGBTQ community and allies to upskill their knowledge and capacity to build healthy consent focused environments and learn how to confidently respond to disclosures of sexual violence. These workshops are designed to provide a safe space for people to learn and understand more about sexual violence in LGBTQ+ communities including how to prevent it and how to respond to it.
  • Facilitators will be offered comprehensive training on workshop content
