Volunteer Program Assessment and Development
Your volunteer program is important. The strategic engagement of volunteers allows your organization to more broadly serve your mission and impact our community. Often, volunteer administration is tacked onto an employee's long list of other priorities and it's impossible to give it the attention it requires. Or each department is responsible for their own volunteer initiatives, creating a fragmented volunteer experience. If a formal, organization-wide program is in place, its leaders are experiencing burnout.
If this sounds familiar, your volunteer program capacity is suffering.
Songbird Leadership is rooted in service. Whether your challenges are in recruitment, retention, training, program structure and maintenance, or something specific to your organization, we have the experience in volunteer program administration necessary to expertly identify the sticking points and help your volunteer program thrive.
Our volunteer program assessment and development methodology includes three phases, which may be modified to meet the unique needs of your organization:
Assessment
A perceptual analysis is completed with key stakeholders, along with a thorough examination of the volunteer program's history and current structure.
Evaluation
Programatic findings are analyzed and compared with best practices in volunteer administration. Recommendations are provided.
Development and Implementation
Recommendations are implemented and the revitalized program is launched. Updated goals and objectives are created for the program to promote accountability and monitor success.
