If your answer is a resounding “yes” to both questions, then Befrienders Ipoh has an extraordinary invitation for you. We are excited to announce that we are actively seeking dedicated individuals to join our team of compassionate volunteers.
At Befrienders Ipoh, our mission is to provide vital support and companionship to those facing mental health challenges. Volunteers play a pivotal role in offering a listening ear, empathy, and understanding to individuals in need. To ensure our volunteers are well-equipped for this important work, we have designed a comprehensive training program.
What makes our training program exceptional is that it is open not only to individuals interested in becoming volunteers but also to the general public who possess a keen interest in learning about mental health. We firmly believe that spreading awareness and understanding about mental health is crucial for building a supportive and inclusive society.
The training sessions, consisting of five physical sessions, will be held between the 5th and 13th of August. Throughout these sessions, you will delve into various aspects of mental health, learn effective communication techniques, acquire active listening skills, and gain insight into crisis intervention strategies. Our experienced trainers will guide you through interactive exercises, role-plays, and engaging group discussions to ensure a truly enriching learning experience.
By participating in this training program, you will gain invaluable insights into the complexities of mental health and acquire practical skills that can be applied not only in volunteering but also in various personal and professional settings. Moreover, you will have the opportunity to connect with like-minded individuals and form a supportive network within our volunteer community.
