MPRB seeks community input on its volunteer program through June 14

The Minneapolis Park and Recreation Board (MPRB) invites current and prospective volunteers to take a survey that will help set the vision for MPRB’s volunteer program. The survey is available through June 14, 2024.

MPRB Volunteer Program Survey

MPRB is exploring current practices and potential modifications to its volunteer program. Setting a common vision for volunteerism within the park and recreation system is fundamental to this work. It will help establish an understanding of the resources needed to engage and support volunteers.

Each term, MPRB Board of Commissioners set Strategic Directions and Performance Goals. One of the 2023-2026 performance goals focuses on volunteerism. It is to “enhance and unify organization-wide volunteer management infrastructure by creating a single tracking system, recruitment strategy, and recognition program that supports all cultures easily accessing volunteer opportunities that range from grassroots to large-scale and establish a 2026 growth target for volunteerism that incorporates the cultural diversity of the city and the budget request that supports accomplishing the target.”
