9th Annual UlsterCorps Service Summit

Thank you so much to everyone who participated in the 8th Annual UlsterCorps Service Summit
Wednesday April 26th, 2017

UlsterCorps’ 9th Annual Service Summit will bring together community leaders from the nonprofit, business, higher education and governmental sectors to address strategies and new media tools for expanding outreach, broadening the volunteer pool and developing an inclusive service environment.

FEATURED SPEAKERS:

Grace Bonney, Design*Sponge
Mariel Fiori, La Voz magazine and La Voz at Radio Kingston
Kristina Labaty, Camphill Village USA
John Oles, SUNY New Paltz

TOPIC FOCUS:

• strategies and tools to communicate your non-profit’s story more effectively
• expand your audience through social media and other outreach platforms
• engage volunteers with special needs; strategies for access and accommodations
• tools and best practices for recruiting and supporting underrepresented populations
• engaging volunteers of all ages and from diverse backgrounds more effectively
• volunteerism as a force for inclusion, bringing communities together, and bridging barriers

The Summit will also feature roundtable discussions, in English and Spanish, giving all attendees an opportunity to participate and network. La Voz at Radio Kingston will be broadcasting the Summit live from 10am-12pm.

The Summit, which is free to participants, is part of the on-going work of UlsterCorps to deepen the knowledge about volunteerism and to find ways to strengthen a culture of service and collaboration in Ulster County. A locally-sourced, healthy breakfast was available to participants.

Registration is free but required and limited to the first 70 respondents. Register by emailing register@ulstercorps.org or by phone (845) 481-0331.
