Lifetime Independent Facilitation
YRLIF INDEPENEDENT FACILITATORS
Our facilitators are all "Associates" of YRLIF. Associates are independent and self-employed. YRLIF provides the following support to each of our Associates in order to ensure that they have the knowledge and expertise to support individuals in their community:
- A Minimum Training requirement before practicing.
- A Network Meeting on a monthly basis to support resource sharing, problem solving and sharing of tools and best practices.
- Coaching and Mentoring provided for the first 6 months of practice by a recognised Facilitator.
- Ongoing opportunities to attend training with a YRLIF subsidy.

HOW MUCH DOES FACILITATION COST?
The cost of facilitation varies based on their experience. In the province of Ontario the average rate for Facilitators is from 30$ to 45$ per hour. If you have Passport Funding (Community Participation Support Funding) through MCSS, you can use this funding to pay for Facilitation or Planning.
