Dear Fellow Rotarians,
The Vocational Service Committee (VSC) in collaboration with Community Service Committee (CSC)has arranged an opportunity for all Rotarians and spouses from our club to be trained by “Club Heal”on how to “act and react” with persons with mental illness. Club Heal is a voluntary organisation that works with persons with mental illness to help them regain confidence in themselves and others in their journey towards community integration. They have a program called “ Healing Friends Training” . This Training provides volunteers with the necessary skills to build a therapeutic relationship with the person with mental illness on their road to recovery. The volunteer is the “befriender”. Rotarians will be trained free of charge and there is no obligation for us to be a volunteer unless we choose to do so.
This project is open to all Rotarians and spouses. You do not need to be a member of VSC or CSC.
While the training is free we need to contribute $10 per person for refreshments to be served that day. The contribution of $10 will be collected at the Club Heal Centre on 15 September 2018.
Please respond by 1 September 2018.
