Engaging College Students as Volunteer Leaders
A 2006 report by the Corporation for National and Community Service found that 3.3 million college students volunteered in 2005. One avenue of increasing your program’s capacity is to tap college students as volunteer leaders to plan projects and engage other students in meaningful service. In this session, learn to leverage the tremendous energy and skills of students through a volunteer leader program that recruits and supports students, builds teams, connects service with learning, and provides opportunities for meaningful service and skill development. This course was created cooperatively by the Corporation for National and Community Service, Hands On Network, and ETR Associates.
