“Collaborating with this province-wide network of people dedicated to building strong communities has developed my leadership capacity and empowered me to mentor the next wave of volunteers. Volunteer coordination is a unique work portfolio and I value the connections made with others in the profession. AVR-SK has helped me problem solve, navigate new trends, and build volunteer programs that are safe and inclusive.”
