The Training and Education Program provides educational presentations and workshops to individuals in community organizations, workplaces, and school settings. Events and educational presentations allow an opportunity for community members to engage in education and dialogue surrounding issues that affect women, children, and youth. The Training and Education Coordinator is available for speaking engagements and presentations in the community, to provide an understanding of issues related to gender-based violence as well as KIH services. Whenever possible, we will promote and attend third party fundraising events that are held to benefit Kingston Interval House.
