Please join national park staff BEFORE the AL!VE / Better Impact Reception at the Ebenezer Baptist Church 101 Jackson Street Atlanta, GA 30312 at 5:15pm for a ranger program, re-enactment of the "I Have a Dream" speech, and walking tour of the historic sites.


 

ALIVE is hosting a Convening of Leaders in Volunteer Engagement.  Positioning for the Future: Strategic Adaptation to the Rapidly Changing Volunteer Engagement Landscape

Outcomes from this convening will be determined by the participants in response to the issues that emerge. At this point, AL!VE envisions a tangible outcome such as:

• An open letter to the field about the state of volunteer engagement and a call to action to advocate for a new vision for engagement. 
• A white paper on emerging best practices for leaders of engagement.
• A list of key issues to explore further through task forces or future convenings.
• A list of key opportunities for collaboration to ensure greater impact by all concerned.

AL!VE will be excited about the potential that such an important conversation will bring.  Stay tuned.
