WEBINAR DETAILS
So much potential
for diversity is present within our existing volunteer workforce and local
communities. Don’t be afraid to ask about it or risk overlooking this
opportunity. It is likely that your volunteers are either members of
underserved communities or have vital connections to these areas and
populations. This webinar will explore methods to access them and teach you how
to recruit and utilize volunteers who can help make important connections to
improve accessibility and coverage. It will look at programming to expand the
services your agency already provides and improve overall marketing efforts as
well as review recruitment polices that are unreasonably risk
averse.
