New Year, New Opportunities

There is no way we could do all that we do without our hundreds of dedicated volunteers. But as we’ve grown and changed, our volunteer needs have changed too. Now the Massachusetts Service Alliance has invited us into a program that will train us how to better recruit and train volunteers.
 
A big part of this initiative is figuring out how to get “skilled volunteers”: people who bring the skills they’ve honed in their work life and applying those skills to our needs. For example, someone with project management experience might become a shift leader for us. Or a marketing professional would join our communications team.
 
We’re excited to be part of this program and look forward to learning more and better ways to find and place volunteers.
