Whether you
facilitate life skills programs, support groups, psychoeducational workshops,
community meetings, or tenant engagement activities, strong group facilitation
skills can transform the participant experience. This interactive workshop is
designed for both new and experienced facilitators who want to build confidence
leading groups while creating spaces where participants feel respected,
included, and engaged.
Participants will explore the stages of group development, the core qualities of effective facilitators, strategies for encouraging participation, and practical tools for navigating common challenges such as conflict, silence, emotional conversations, disruptive behaviours, and competing needs.
