16th Annual UlsterCorps Service Summit
when: Wednesday April 29th, 2026, 8:30am-12:30pm
where: SUNY New Paltz
The 16th Annual UlsterCorps Service Summit will be held Wednesday April 29th, 2026 from 8:30am – 12:30pm at SUNY New Paltz and is co-sponsored by the Center for Student Engagement, the Benjamin Center for Public Policy at SUNY New Paltz, the Thomas and Corinne Nyquist Foundation, and Ulster Savings Bank.
Each year since our founding in 2009, UlsterCorps has hosted a Service Summit at SUNY New Paltz bringing together students, volunteers and community leaders from the nonprofit, business, higher education and governmental sectors to address the work and value of volunteerism and collaborative projects in Ulster County.
The focus for the 2026 Summit will be volunteer opportunities and service in support of food security and food access. It will feature panel discussions of successful case studies, new models, and best practices. As always it will include roundtable discussions giving all attendees an opportunity to participate and network. Members of the community interested in volunteering with these initiatives are welcome to attend.
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 is included. Registration is limited to the first 75 individuals to register by emailing register@ulstercorps.org or calling/texting 845-481-0331.
