Welcome to My Survey

In an effort to identify critical community needs that can be addressed by volunteers and federally funded programs such as AmeriCorps, Senior Corps and VISTA, Volunteer NH invites your input as we develop our NH State Service Plan. The Corporation for National and Community Service requires that every state service commission in the country compose a three year plan that prioritizes the local, regional, and state-wide service needs. By helping to identify community issues, you will help guide Volunteer NH design a plan that seeks to direct valuable time, resources and service towards making our state a healthier, safer and a more abundant place to live. Please take the time to carefully answer the survey questions below.
