Community Pain Champion
Lead The Change For Better Pain Care In Your Community.​
The Community Pain Champions (CPC) program is an initiative of Pain Revolution that gives frontline health and community workers the skills, knowledge, and support to help people living with chronic pain. Whether you’re looking to grow your impact or join a network of like-minded professionals, this initiative is designed for you.
Scholarships are available in Queensland, and self-funded options are available throughout the rest of Australia, thanks to the support of Country to Coast Queensland (CCQ) and Sunshine Coast Health. Express your interest today to build your skills and make a real difference in your community.
​
If you’re a passionate health or community support worker ready to grow your skills and help lead change, now is the time to step forward.
What Is The Community Pain Champion Program?
This is your chance to take action - right where you live and work.
​
You’ll receive practical, evidence-based training from Australia’s leaders in pain science and education, guiding you every step of the way. As a Community Pain Champion, you’ll become a go-to resource for pain education in your community, able to share knowledge, lead local initiatives, and empower others to see pain differently.
​
But this is way more than a course; it’s about connection, leadership, and impact. You’ll join a national movement of people committed to building healthier futures, starting in your own backyard.
