Book Description
Volunteer handbooks are probably one of the most underutilized but potentially most important tools in any nonprofit's management toolbox. That's because before you cannot even think about developing a handbook you must evaluate all of your policies and procedures for the recruitment, training, recognition and dismissal of every type of volunteer within your nonprofit. When you complete this type of thorough assessment, and only then, are you ready to start the process of putting together a handbook. And this toolkit will provide you with everything you need to know to develop one or more valuable handbooks which will greatly enhance your volunteer development program. The guide looks at the pros and cons of several types of formats and even provides sample policies, procedures and a table of contents.
