Volunteer to Become a Support Group Facilitator

Tarab NYC aims to create confidential/safer spaces for individuals in the MENA (Middle Eastern and North African) community to share experiences, foster support, and develop strategies for coping with shared and indvidual challenges.

These groups have been facilitated by dedicated community members like Wardeh Hattab and Hazem Alanani. To expand our reach and provide more support groups, we are now seeking additional community members to step into facilitator roles.

Facilitator Requirements

  • Experience leading support or discussion groups.
  • Must identify as Queer/Trans and Middle Eastern/North African.
  • Available to commit to in-person sessions once a month, with scheduling flexibility.

Please note: While stipends are not currently available (we’re working on that!), any related expenses will be reimbursed.

If you are interested in becoming a facilitator, please contact Hazem Alanani at hazem@tarabnyc.org by December 15th. He will followup with next steps.
