About this Event
The COVID pandemic forced changes big and small in our society, and with it, a new picture of community service and volunteerism has emerged. This new vision is characterized by changes in who volunteers and how we find and engage them.
In this fast-paced session, you’ll learn about workable strategies and explore resources to assist you in assessing your current volunteer program. This 1.5-hour virtual or in person session course includes multiple handouts, resources and opportunities for group discussion and individual work. Participants will be asked to take a short survey on volunteer program readiness at least two days prior to the class.
Topics covered:
• State of volunteer engagement
• Changing priorities
• Time & role diversity
• Strengthening organizational capacity with skills-based volunteers.
Nonprofit Austin reserves the right to postpone this learning opportunity if there
is inadequate registration.
