In partnership with the United Way of the Southern Tier, the 2-1-1 Give Help volunteer clearinghouse and resource center maintains the region's most comprehensive database of volunteer opportunities, and also provides training/professional development programs for volunteer managers.
Training
The Volunteer Conference held in November attracted participants from as far away as Buffalo, Ithaca, Rochester, Syracuse, Schoharie and Binghamton, and as near as organizations in Steuben and Chemung Counties - allowing for networking and sharing ideas on a regional level. Additional trainings throughout the year included "Using Technology to Manage, Train, & Engage Volunteers," "The Legalities of Volunteering," "Managing Episodic Volunteers," and "Engaging a Diverse Group of Volunteers While Maintaining Productivity."
Regional Volunteer Center of the Southern Tier
Through Volunteer Generation funding, the Regional Volunteer Center of the Southern Tier awarded mini-grants to agencies in Steuben, Chemung, and additional counties for Martin Luther King, Jr. Day, National Volunteer Week, and 9/11 Day of Service and Remembrance. Each involved significant numbers of volunteers and the mini-grants allowed agencies to celebrate through community service, volunteer recognition, and education.
