About this event

In the nonprofit sector, "best practices" are often cited as the key to successful volunteer programs. But what if this concept is actually doing more harm than good? This session challenges the widely accepted notion of "best practices," demonstrating how they are often rooted in white supremacy culture and are therefore not effective or equitable for all. We will move beyond this limiting concept to explore how adopting truly people-centered practices unlocks innovation, allowing us to build volunteer systems that are deeply rooted in equity, not just one dominant group's definition of "best."

Join MAVA's Executive Director, Niila Hebert, and MAVA Consultant, Lisa Joyslin, for this engaging virtual workshop that will challenge you to examine your assumptions and re-discover your creativity.
