"Working to relieve poverty through social inclusion and education"
Way2Go Toolkit
Way2Go Toolkit
The purpose of the toolkit is to:
provide information and tools for the development and management of volunteer programs
provide generic information for the development of policy and processes that are compliant with National Standards, and
provide a toolkit that can be easily adapted and amended to suit individual needs of organisations.
The policies, processes and forms meet with National Standards for involving volunteers in not-for-profit organisations. These standards are what Volunteering Australia regards as best practice in the management of volunteers.
This information has been designed and developed in consultation with members of the Albury Wodonga Volunteer Resource Bureau and the Upper Hume Primary Care Partnership team.
This toolkit can be of value to organisations that are setting up a volunteer program or to those that already have a program in place.
It aims to guide organisations in best practice when working with volunteers, in keeping with the National Standards for Involving Volunteers.
It has been designed to be of use to both small organisations with only a few volunteers and large organisations with many volunteers.
Outcomes to date include:
Over 2,500 volunteer managers and coordinators using the Tool kit.
This in effect has impacted on managing 15,000 plus volunteers.
Volunteer Centres, councils, hospitals, sports clubs and not-for-profit organisations across Victoria, NSW, SA, Qld, Tas, & WA are using the same methods and tools, creating a sense of unity and consistency giving volunteers professional and generic processes no matter where they volunteer.
