April 14th Program: Core Policies for Your Volunteers, Board and Staff

With the recent economic challenges nonprofits are facing, volunteers have become an essential resource for organizations. As nonprofits rely more and more on volunteers, working with them and their management have become more of focus. This program focuses on three types of volunteers: board members, volunteers, and interns. The program features a panel discussion with nonprofit professionals sharing and discussing policies for the board, volunteers and interns. The proposed panel will be:

•Susan Kenny, Executive Director, Roxbury Arts Group, sharing feedback and policies for boards of directors
•Nancy Karaman, Volunteer Administrator, New York State Historical Association and The Farmers' Museum, sharing information and policies on volunteer management
•Melissa Marietta, Internship Coordinator, Hartwick College, sharing information and policies on internship management
Program location will be at A.O. Fox's Levine Conference Center located at 1 Norton Ave, Oneonta, NY.
