Volunteer Management

“At its most basic level, volunteer management is the selection, supervision and engagement of volunteers. But it’s much more than that. Volunteer management opens an organization to the community and allows citizens to get involved.” - Volunteer Canada

This guide is intended to provide information on volunteer management to individuals working in the child welfare sector. It provides information about the recruitment, orientation, engagement, and overall management of volunteers. It highlights resources related to diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) throughout, and also includes a section dedicated to DEI and volunteer management.
