Volunteer Census
Volunteer Census Reports
At CISVic, we understand the vital role that volunteers play in our sector. Every day, our members are supported by volunteers who generously give their time, knowledge, and compassion to assist those seeking support during difficult times. Our third volunteer census aims to ensure that the volunteers who significantly impact our sector receive the recognition they deserve. It also serves as a platform to highlight their strengths as volunteers, hear their voices, and learn how we can best support them.
