Employment type: full time Volunteer Opportunity: Peer Support Facilitator Organization: Bros Before Lows Location: Remote / Online Start Date: August 2026 (Training begins immediately) Time Commitment: Fully flexible—you choose your own hours and how often you want to hold space. Where Brotherhood Meets Purpose Bros Before Lows is looking for dedicated men and women ready to step into leadership. We do not need experts, gurus, or fixers—we need anchors . Our mission is simple: to create a grounded environment where individuals can drop their armor, speak their truth, and heal through community. We serve as a strategic stepping stone, helping participants reconnect with professional clinical support systems at their own pace. The Role: What It Means to Be an Anchor As a Peer Support Facilitator, your primary job is to hold space, not to repair the people inside it. You will oversee a 2-hour support circle strictly capped at 12 participants, ensuring the space remains secure, structured, and safe. Got related experience? We’re also launching specialized peer support sessions to elevate our facilitators and deepen their connection with their brothers. We'd love your input. Because we value your time and energy, your facilitation schedule is entirely up to you . Your Core Responsibilities: Steady Grounding: Lead a 5-minute opening (e.g., silent minute, box breathing) to anchor the room. Time Management: Enforce the 5-minute sharing frame and 2.5-minute feedback reels to ensure no one is left behind. Respectful Witnessing: Listen actively without trying to diagnose, judge, or change anyone's reality. Boundary-Setting: Steer the group away from giving direct advice, fixing, or engaging in toxic talk about professional therapy. Emergency Navigation: Recognize red flags and calmly utilize our crisis protocols and national resource referrals when immediate safety is a concern. The Facilitator Mindset Holding space requires immense presence and the ability to leave your own weekly struggles at the door. To protect the integrity of our circles, we ask facilitators to operate by these strict guidelines: What We Need (The Anchor) Shares personal lived experiences to relate. Allows silence to breathe when emotions arise. Gently pivots "jokers" or "talkers" to keep balance. Recognizes when a participant needs professional help. What We Do Not Need (The Fixer) Gives direct advice or tells people what to do. Rushes to fill sudden pauses out of discomfort. Lets one participant monopolize the circle's time. Attempts to act as a therapist or clinical professional. ⚠️ Important: Safety Standards & Certification To ensure the absolute highest standard of care, we have paused all live support groups until August . Before holding space for us, all facilitators must meet our new baseline certification standards.
