Do You…
  • Have a natural talent for connecting people?
  • Enjoy extending hospitality?
  • See the “gifts” rather than the “deficits” of others?
  • Believe that relationships are essential for a good life?
  • Want to help people who are isolated to develop their support networks?
  • Want to be part of a “cutting edge” organization?
Then join us at LifeSPAN!

Among the essential elements of being a successful Facilitator at LifeSPAN is the ability to engage, listen to, and guide a group of people that have come together for one purpose: the focus person. Although the focus of the network is one person, the outcome of the network depends on all of its members. As a facilitator, being able to promote individual choices, foster community interaction and continuously discover common purposes within others allows the network to thrive.
LifeSPAN often has openings for part-time network facilitators. We are looking for people with life experience to help adults with a developmental disability to connect with a community and build a support network of friends.
Time commitment and training:
Approximately 1 to 6 hours a month.
Approximately $25.50 an hour.
A one-year commitment is requested.
If you’re interested in learning more, please contact Beth Angelo, Network Coordinator: beth@lifespan-wa.org.
