Case study: a volunteer program stretching across the state border

Good planning will ensure a better chance of achieving the program's vision, goals and objectives whilst also meeting the needs and rights of the volunteers.

Tip

Invest the time to think about and develop the vision, goals and objectives of your program - people will join, and grant organisations are more likely to fund, an environmental program which has clear direction, outcomes and operating procedures.
