Volunteer recruitment tip sheet

Finding great volunteers can be a challenge for new programs and for first year AmeriCorps members. This recruitment tip sheet will support you and your members as you start the difficult task of creating a database of volunteer connections. It will give you ideas so you can create a system of volunteer recruitment that you can use year after year.

This tip sheet was contributed by Chicago Public Schools Homeless Education Program (Chicago, IL), a VISTA program that works with low income and homeless students to assure they are provided with educational opportunities that are equal to those of other students.
