Building Blocks for Effective Programs

The key components of effective service and volunteer programs

Community Collaboration

Community collaboration is essential to building and sustaining high-quality community service programs. Working hand-in-hand with local leaders, community builders, and people in need, program members can initiate change on a large scale. An effective program will benefit from a broad base of local support for funding, expertise, in-kind donations, and resource and volunteer development.
