Having a skilled, motivated and happy volunteer working for you is a sign of the overall health and strength of your organization. It is vital that non-profits and organizations who engage volunteers stay current on the latest strategies for the communication and involvement of volunteers.
Knowing how to attract those highly-skilled volunteers, and keeping them engaged with your organization, is not an easy task. This workshop will explore the needs of your volunteers and what motivates them to be a part of your organization. You will learn a range of strategies and also gain new perspectives in volunteer recruitment and engagement.
This is an essential workshop for community groups developing or changing their volunteer recruitment and retention systems.
