National Community Tax Coalition Training: Volunteer Recruitment & Retention Training Series

Volunteers are a big part of our tax sites’ operations. Without the assistance of our volunteers we would be unable to meet our organizations’ goals and missions. Yet, volunteer recruitment and retention seems to be a challenge year after year in the VITA community. This three part training series will look into three different potential sectors for recruiting and retaining volunteers.
