Strong volunteer programs depend on effective volunteer leadership. This advanced volunteer management webinar explores how hospice volunteer managers and coordinators can identify, mentor, and develop volunteer leaders who support recruitment, engagement, training, and program growth.
This session will explore proven strategies to
identify, recruit, and develop volunteers for leadership roles that strengthen
your organization. Participants will learn practical strategies for building leadership pathways that strengthen long-term hospice volunteer management success, as well as how to engage skilled community members who are ready

stronger, more sustainable organization.
