Guiding Practices for Nonprofits

• Nonprofits should develop clearly defined, written volunteer job descriptions including scope of work, necessary skills, expected time commitment and the impact and benefits of the volunteer's service. 
   
• Nonprofits should incorporate a broad range of internal and external strategies to reach diverse groups of volunteers. 
   
• Nonprofits should conduct background checks if volunteers will be working directly with vulnerable populations. 

The Guide is available as a free digital download at CNPENM.org/Guide. Hard copies of the Guide and Companion Workbook will be available for purchase at this training for $25 each with a credit card or check.

The Center for Nonprofit Excellence often takes photos during our trainings to share on social media. If you prefer not to be photographed, please let us know in the Special Needs field when you register.
