Provide one-on-one support as a certified maintenance mediator
Here's a little more info about this opportunity...
See access to justice in action. Maintenance is about more than financial support. It is about responsibility, dignity and economic justice. This community outreach initiative highlights the connection between maintenance responsibility, economic vulnerability and the broader fight against Gender-Based Violence and Femicide (GBVF). Experience how mediation and practical conflict-resolution interventions can help empower families and create meaningful change in communities. You’re also invited to join our specialised Certified Maintenance Mediator training as part of the Social Justice Foundation’s Responsibility Project.

Stay safe
- 1. Don’t pass any personal information to people you haven’t met offline before.
- 2. When meeting one of your contacts offline for the first time, always be sure to arrange to meet in a public place.
- 3. Make sure that you are not left alone with someone that you have never met before.
- 4. Know where you’re going. If you’re headed off the beaten track or into an unfamiliar part of town, be sure you have directions and a GPS or map book.
- 5. If you feel unsafe, consult the person in charge and let him or her know.
