Master Volunteer Program (MVP)
Service should be a part of the mix of post-retirement
activities. Healthy aging means staying involved, being creative and making
new relationships.
RespectAbility Marin
In May 2007, the Center was awarded a prestigious Models of Significant
Service grant from the National Council
on Aging (NCOA). With the assistance of this two-year grant, the Center
has launched RespectAbility Marin to create a Leadership Team
of eight-to-ten professional master volunteer advisors for projects that
increase the organizational capacity of individual nonprofits in Marin.
The RespectAbility Marin Leadership Team will work in the areas
of human resource, executive and management issues, training, board development
and business/strategic planning. Members of the Leadership Team will be
at the heart of the Center’s mission: to promote volunteerism and
to strengthen the delivery of services by nonprofits in Marin. Team volunteers
will also help nonprofits develop more challenging opportunities and work
with nonprofit organizations to become more competent in working with
highly skilled volunteers.

Civic Engagement Leadership Team
The Center has launched its new Civic Engagement Leadership Team (CELT).
For the first time, the Center will be able to provide pro-bono leadership
service to nonprofit member organizations for projects focusing on building
infrastructure, improving systems and building institutional knowledge.
Our goal is to strengthen the delivery of vital community services in
Marin. We now have over twenty persons who want to take on Leadership
Service Projects. These individuals have financial, business, human resource,
marketing and executive management backgrounds. CELT members are available
for technical assistance or for more formal, short-term projects. We are
encouraging all member agencies to submit Leadership Service Projects
for this new venture.
