What we need

• Looking for 10 English-speaking volunteers to conduct presentations on emotional wellbeing for domestic helpers
• Volunteers will need to attend a 1 hour online briefing prior to the session (date & time will be confirmed after volunteer signed up)
• Volunteers will need to do approximately 2 hours of background reading at their own time and pace
• Volunteers will need to do a 2-hour practice session with other volunteers before the actual session, this will probably be conducted in person
• Volunteers will have to commit 2 hours on a Sunday to conduct a training for Know Your Rights face to face session at least for 1 time. We highly encourage volunteers to do more sessions, but it is not mandatory.

Background

HELP is looking for volunteers to conduct and present the module on emotional wellbeing.

Why this is important

Migrant Domestic Workers who learn about emotional wellbeing will enhance their understanding of their own emotion, gain the ability to use effective coping strategies, and develop emotional resilience to confront challenges. Furthermore, they will be capable of recognizing emotional wellbeing issues among others around them and supporting them.
