We’re looking for a confident professional who is passionate about gender-based violence and mental health to help us record Bloom courses. You will be working alongside other French-speaking activists to create high-quality videos that provide information and tools for survivors on their healing journey.
Chayn is an award-winning, open-source collective that leverages technology to empower women against violence and oppression so they can live happier and healthier lives. Chayn started in 2013 to provide survivors of abuse with accurate, diverse and accessible information.
Since our beginnings, 400,000 people have accessed our award-winning work online, generating 1.2 million page views. Up to 70% of our volunteers are survivors of abuse which means not only are our projects user-centred - they are user-led. We are experts in trauma-informed work. We are one of the few feminist technology projects tackling gender-based violence while creating and maintaining openly-licensed products and code. We’re proud to have been profiled by GitHub for this during GitHub Universe 2018 and on GitHub Sponsors. Most of our funding comes from non-profit funding.
We have created Bloom: a free, online, trauma support service for survivors of gender-based violence.
Bloom provides a variety of course options designed to inform and empower survivors. By combining learnings from the science and study of trauma (without any pseudoscience!) with tips, tools, and techniques to support healing, Bloom provides space for survivors to recover from trauma. During each course, we offer support via regular messages; scripted course videos; and a one-to-one chat service between participants and facilitators. Bloom is led by a global team of full- and part-time facilitators.
Bloom’s courses were originally written in English and we are now rolling out to offer them in multiple languages, including French, Hindi and Portuguese.
It’s important to us that they be translated and communicated in a way that is accessible, scientifically accurate and intelligible to French speakers with a variety of national, cultural, and personal backgrounds.
The courses we are offering in French are:
