The Comhlámh coming home guide

1/11/2016

Welcome Home! Returning from an overseas placement can be a very challenging experience with highs and lows. This does not happen to every volunteer but can be very common, particularly in those returning home from a developing country for the first time.
Many returnees return home full of inspiration and motivation to stay involved in global development issues. Depending on the circumstances they are returning to, it can be a struggle to find ways to get involved and to put to use their energy and enthusiasm. Comhlámh offers a range of support services to cater to volunteers and development workers on their return. Our services respond to the needs that returnees have identified for themselves. Among the services we offer are debriefing, counselling, career guidance, PRSI and Pensions support and our Coming Home Weekends.
