Nonviolence Training
Facilitator Agreement
Thank you for your

F.O.R. has set expectations for Facilitators:

hours, without meals & long breaks)

Bene Nonviolence Service.
- They seek opportunities to
conduct FVTW training, but may have others organize training.
- They inform FOR of trainings
and afterward send the Organizer’s $100.00 donation and
copies of evaluations to F.O.R. c/o Nonviolence Training, Box

and other training arrangements with the Organizer.
F.O.R. will
arrange or provide:

support, networking, training of more Facilitators
- Training packets with basic
training and FOR materials, including membership forms @$2.00
- FVTW manuals @ $20.00

FOR local groups, Religious Peace Fellowships, print mail, etc.)
Guidelines
for Facilitator Compensation
In the interest of justice and building community among Facilitators,
FOR strongly recommends that all Facilitators advocate that they
be compensated in one of two ways: (1) Some Facilitators will work
with a sponsoring organization that subsidizes and promotes training
and provides services, materials, and continuing education; these
Facilitators may agree to provide their services for free. (2) Other
Facilitators should request a stipend of $450 each, over and above
the costs of their housing, travel and meals. If they wish to donate
it, that is their personal choice. Facilitators have invested time
and money to become trained, and they prepare and set aside time
to deliver the training. FOR and organizers must appropriately acknowledge
the contribution Facilitators make to the work of peace.
If you agree to
these expectations, please sign, date and mail this form to F.O.R.
at Box 271, Nyack, New York, 10960.
