How the stars aligned for
Volunteers in South Australia
Volunteering in South Australia was at a crossroads.
Traditionally, State Government led the development of
volunteering policy, programs and resources.
In 2013 an opportunity was identified to create a cross-sector
strategy to advance volunteering across South Australia.
The Volunteering Strategy for South Australia was launched in
2014 providing a coordinated approach to promote and sustain
volunteering over the next six years.
