← go backCivic and volunteer groups are unique as they are almost entirely comprised of volunteers that are invested in improving their local community. Engaging these individuals in your efforts can assist with expanding your work to populations that may be difficult to reach and provide additional opportunities to share resources and connections in your community.
Civic and volunteer groups, like Lions Clubs, neighborhood associations, etc., provide local data, connections, and volunteers that can help address substance use and recovery efforts in the community.
“Civic and volunteer groups play a key role in improving our communities by sharing resources and information, building connections, and addressing problems in our neighborhoods. Attending our coalition meetings will help your group have more knowledge about available local resources and will connect you with other groups working to improve our community and make it a healthy place for everyone.”
