Needs
Assessment and Sustainable Service Delivery Plan for
Volunteerism in District 69
During the period September 2006 to May 2007, the O.V.A.
undertook a research initiative in partnership with Service
Canada. The project included:
- Developing and implementing a needs assessment to
determine the extent of volunteer organizations and
services in Oceanside.
- Planning and hosting a volunteer fair in the
spring of 2007.
As part of the Needs Assessment, the Oceanside Volunteer
Association
conducted a
series of three surveys to answer the following questions:
-
How many people
are participating in volunteer programs? (The
"Man on the Street Survey"
)
-
Do volunteer
organizations in the Oceanside area have sufficient volunteer
support for their programs? (The "Volunteer
Organization Survey" )
-
Have volunteers found their experiences to be happy, meaningful
and rewarding?
(The
"Volunteer Satisfaction Survey")
The results of
this research project are contained in the project
report.
