REAL FOOD REAL STORIES
2021 FACILITATOR COHORT
Be a part of the core of Real Food Real Stories’ work with the opportunity to get to know and facilitate the storytelling process of two food changemakers in the Bay Area.
Leading up to each of our free monthly gatherings, a facilitator guides the highlighted food changemaker in developing their story using the RFRS storytelling guide. The role of the facilitator is to hold space for the changemaker as they craft their personal story to be shared with impact at a gathering.

This opportunity does not require extensive public speaking. Our program director guides the listeners through the gathering. Your main responsibility is to facilitate the story development, hold physical space during the live gathering, and interface with the RFRS team as necessary. If you are not comfortable with the public part of the live gathering, a member of the RFRS team can hold that space. The facilitator is not involved in the selection of storytellers and must be willing to work with people of all backgrounds.
